I'll be a hundred and ten in the not too distant future, the old ship's got a few blotches, but she's still on course!

Insurance - Pension - Life Art

I'd like to say to all young folks that I envy you your youth, lol - of course.
But, like myself, we all inevitably get older.
So it's important to built up a small fortune "for a later time". This has always made me laugh. But I've saved a bit anyway.
But today - I have the feeling that I've finally arrived in this realm, which had always been so far away in the future. I can even see the other coastline (on a "clear day").
So it comes that I've decided to shift my gears back a bit before it's too late, to work a few days less per month (yes I'm in a situation to be able to do so), and enjoy the very last stretch of my ride. I hope it'll be a long stretch, free of cliffs lurking under water.
It's a good, a very good and comforting feeling to be able to lean back and increasingly live on those savings and insurances "for later".
This is Life Art.
