I retired a few years early. In my case, the decision was due to the death of several people near and dear to me. After losing friends and family members both young and old, I realized if I was going to enjoy the latter years of my life, I had better get going on it. So, I gave up the job and career, and embraced a life of lowered income and greater personal freedom. None of us know the number of days we have left on this earth, so those of us who have the means to wander should do so.
