Tom: Memorabilia is the toughest part. Some things have historical value. What the heck do you do with those? I have cast far and wide to nephews, neices, distant relatives - with waning success.
Then there is my own memorabilia. (Never mind that I recently married, again and she has hers as well.) I have stuff to remember different periods in my life. What do I do with _______ (Fill in the blank.) As someone else mentioned, I even have "memorabilia" rocks! They are small, but I have 'em.
Nick knacks, award plaques, trophies, enough to overload the motorhome!
Then, all of the next generation is sitting around wondering "What's he going to do with his guns?" I may surprise them. I may just give them all but a few. Tools, of course, are another issue. Can't do much work, don't need many tools. Guns and other tools will be easier, of course. I just have to make up my mind on those. Hard to let go of them.
I may just have an estate sale, and be in attendance, myself. Hows that for an idea?
So, what about retirement in general? We have ChinMusic to thank for a reallly good thread.
Who else has retirement issues/advice?
