I'll be retired soon, I was thinking of working for another agency in Florida but now the way things are I'm figuring why bother. My wife says just a bs job for some extra cash it's not like we really will need the money. Anyone feel like this?

I am not at the retirement age yet but I would feel the same way. I always need to be on the go so I would want to work as well. I cant see myself sitting at home all day doing nothing. Also, I don't want to be assigned "tasks" to do around the house!

It's a good position to be in to not need the money. I say find something you're more passionate about or something where you could develop a new hobby. Maybe landscaping or you could try volunteering at a local community center.

After I left LE, I stayed in the public safety industry in private sector- still working with agencies and gov., really really enjoyed it!

If I may ask, are you anxious that you'll be stagnant after retirement? Try to have an open talk with your wife about this. Maybe you can explain why you want to continue to work after. Anyways, happy retirement!
