“When a man retires, his wife gets twice the
husband, but only half the income.” ChiChi Rodriquez
The problem with being retired is that you never
know what day it is, what time it is, where you’re suppose to be, or
what you’re suppose to be doing. It’s a lot like working for the
government. Anonymous
Malcolm S. Forbes, former chairman and editor in
chief of the Forbes magazine said, “Retirement kills more people
than hard work ever did.”
“It is the nature of a man as he grows older to
protest against change, particularly change for the better.” John
Steinbeck
The toastmaster said to the guest of honor
at a retirement party, “As a token of our appreciation, we have created
this special gold watch to serve as a constant reminder of your many
years with our company. It has to be wound frequently; it’s always a
little late’ and every day at a quarter till five it quits working.”
