In an ordinary and desirable situation, upon retirement, the pace of life for the individual involved slows down immediately and markedly. At least that was my experience. And that was a HUGE immediate benefit. Healthwise, for sure. I wish I had had my blood pressure checked before and after retirement, but I am sure it has come down. I am now able to slow down and enjoy life, doing things like appreciating the quietness of a morning, or enjoying an extra cup of coffee with my wife. Or just sitting and thinking. Good things. And, I can actually plan out my day in a rational and sane manner, just the opposite of how it was before.
