Way to go Mark. I do not anticipate retiring until well into my 60's. Having dealt with more lay-offs, mergers, downsizes etc. over my 22 year career combined with 3 kids who will prob. go to college (I paying half), 2 potential weddings and this evil obsession called club racing. My salvation is a new higher pay job with Marathon in a much lower cost area - Robinson, il
I suspect that you will go on to something else anyway!!

Mark doesn't have to worry about looking too hard to start a 2nd career.

Didn't the Porn industry just ask for some bailout money? They'll be hiring soon!

Daymn- I'm having trouble with just the spelling of the word rtirmint...seems so far off.................gonna be a while,coingrats!

I'm working on retirement #2 and when that happens I'm done. but I'll be 60 when that happens. Then #3 probably won't happen as Obama has spent all social security money on the bail out schemes that won't work. Hopefully 2 will be enough.
