Last week I was in Philadelphia for the ASCD Conference. It sounds like a conference for administrators, but it is also a great conference for teachers. Almost half of the attendees were K-12 teachers.
One interesting session I listened to was titled, Tired or Retiring: Prepare to Enter the Arena of Active Retirement. The speaker was 70 years old and a retired principle that was starting his second charter school since retirement. One of his suggestions was to spend 6 months to a year living on what you will have for income during retirement so you can see if it will be enough to have the life style that you are anticipating during retirement.
My hotel was 10 blocks from the conference center so I walked a lot and got to see many historic areas of Philadelphia. Of course, I had to eat a Philly Steak and Cheese. It is humungous. Lasted for two meals.
