Well, my husband just got laid off

53. It might be a blessing in disguise (regardless of what they say, you do not have to work until you drop).

I retired from state service after 30 years of service at age 60. There is definitely an adjustment, especially for men who define themselves largely by their jobs. But it is fun to be able to go to the beach when everyone else is working and to fly during off peak days. He can always volunteer and use his skills in a new way that enriches both of your lives.
