    Roll Call For Retirement NOT my story

    (It’s the first day of high school for me and I’m sitting in my freshman English class. This teacher had my two sisters before in a creative writing class so she had gotten some very bizarre pieces from them. She is calling roll.)

    Teacher: gets to my name on the roll and slams down her stack of papers “Another [My Last Name]!?

    Me: cracking up “Yes.”

    Teacher: “How many more are there?”

    Me: “Two more.”

    Teacher: “I’m retiring by then.”

    (She did continue to be a substitute teacher so there’s a chance!)

    You could retire tomorrow with a sufficiently dangerous lifestyle and insufficient luck.

    My father said if he had known had much he enjoyed retirement, he would have done it 10 years earlier. I completely agree.

    There are many countries that you can retire in that won’t bankrupt you( and are safe). The issue is a lot of people don’t want to change anything and continue with their current living and then wonder where the money went.
