After Covid19

I have had a long phone call today with a good friend who I have known for many years, we were discussing how things have changed and what will be different.

The thing that surprised me was how we have both decided to take things easier, no more chasing around and not taking what we have for granted.

My friend has also decided he is going to retire early and that was the most surprising thing as he has always been a workaholic. He said we will spend a long time dead and he is correct.

This has been the first time in our working lives either of us have had so much free time and I have to admit I have sort of liked it apart from the worry about lack of money coming in. Luckily the wife has managed to pick up some extra hours working from home so all the bills will get paid.

I will have to look what retiring early means financially. I think the events of the past couple of months will make a lot of people think.
