I still have 20+ years until retirement, but my wife and I have dreams of retiring at what is now my grandparents house on the lake, just like they did in the 80's. Infact, it's right down the road from Lake Geezer.

Unfortunately I live a 14 hour drive from the lake, but North Carolinas police retirement is 2nd best in the country and I have 7 years in now. New Hampshires retirement is not nearly as good,50% after 20 years. I'm lookng at 80% after 30 years and I plan to have a couple years worth of sick time to retire early with at around age 48 or 49. It's possible that we will get a 25 yr retirement passed here and then I could be done at around age 44! I'd love to retire up there and join the marine patrol, at least you could trust me to know what I was doing out there.

I think Massachusetts (my home state) has a minimum age of 55, blah!
