Many people find the prospect of early retirement appealing. Early retirees can have a harder time adjusting and can become disenchanted as they progress deeper into their retirement. As one reason, early retirees still have high levels of energy and drive, and many still have a strong need to be productive. The truth is early retirees may face more boredom day to day than their older counter-parts. This is healthy – early retirees can’t afford to hold onto their working identities.
