Jester,

Are you a programmer and are you retired?  Not that what you do in your free time would match my preferences, but just out of curiosity, if you are retired, how do you entertain yourself?

Maybe the questions should be generalized to all here?

So, this is me:

I love the stock market, love to read financial news, do my own due diligence. I read anything that is financial news.  Funny thing, I am not much of a book person, don't read novels much, in fact it has been years.  My wife is a great cook and now that I work from home, I am helping in the kitchen and surprise, surprise, I like it. 

I am thinking of volunteering at some school to teach basic financial advice, like how to teach people of the very basics of budgeting, also thinking of learning languages, especially Italian and French.  Will see if I do all these when I retire.

Anyhow, looking forward to hearing from all of you.
