It must be nice to get to retire that young ,Im 50 and will probably retire when my toes turn up.

i have to complete service where my total years worked and age have to equal 65 but to get full benefits i have to serve 2 more years for my age not the service. so at 47 i "could retire" but i want to be at a point at work where i dont have to do much

What kind of work are you in ?

Sounds like my brother inlaw who retired at 47 also from driving a UPS truck since he was a teamsters. He got his pension since his age and years of service met the required number. He started driving at age 18. He's now driving a school bus part time to keep busy.

i am in the school system i am the director of technology now :)
