    Friend of mine could afford to retire early at 55. Did much of nothing for a few years. Then one day, he decided to go back to school. He’s now well on his way to a PhD in a completely unrelated field. He says it made him excited about life again.

      That’s honestly what I would do if I could retire early, just go back to uni to study something that catches my fancy
