Do you plan on ever retiring?

I like the idea of retiring when I'm ready (and able), but it frankly sounds a bit boring. While I like the idea of a very flexible schedule (i.e. not having to work 40+hrs /week), I don't know if I'll ever fully retire to live a life of leisure. I can imagine myself running a non-profit, consulting or actively volunteering for different charity orgs. What do you guys think about retirement?

I ask this question to myself a lot. I love working and I don't think I'll ever be able to just cold turkey it :)

I wish and I hope that I will be able to retire and have enough cash for living and fun. Sorry for the negative Nancy. However, I'm truly worried about the proposition of retirement...

It's a great thought. I wouldn't give up working completely. I was just go stir crazy. However, I think financials will be the bigger issue when it comes to me ever retiring.

Same. By the time I'm of age, I probably will still have to have multiple income streams.
