(And stop worrying over most things since they really aren't that important unless it is health related.)

Amen to that.

We retired last year (2022) due to some health scares. We've mostly recovered, but ya never know...so we're spending 1poorkid's inheritance, and doing what we want. The biggest problem is shifting gears from a life of saving to a life of spending (since there is little income to save now). I don't plan to spend inordinate amounts of time worrying about dodging taxes. I don't want to be stupid about it, but if I miss a little something here or there, fine. Not a big deal.

Try to stay healthy, and do what you want to do as much as you can do it. Even if it's work (hey, some people love their jobs). Because one day, you probably won't be able to do it anymore. And then it's too late.

Hopefully we all have a good 2024.
