I decided to retire early and am leaving my company at the end of April aged 58. Just reached a stage where the hassle of my job is making me so miserable. Life is too short. I have reasonable pensions and my wife is nine years younger so will carry on working. We will have enough for a reasonable lifestyle. .

In retirement I walk the dog every day and also do a 5k run each day. I will do the household chores and cook the evening meal. That’s enough to keep me going.
