Years full-timing since retirement?

If you started full-timing following retirement, how many years has it been and how many more years do you plan on?

Thanks!
  • Retired December 2013. Started Fulltiming January 2014. So about 20 months for both.

    We are now 49. We have 15 more years to Medicare. How long we full time is completely dependent on how the stock market does over the next 15 years and how medical costs go. Mostly, how medical costs go. If our medical insurance quadruples we will probably have to get a job or two. Between now and then, we have no plans to quit though we will eventually trade in the RV for a boat and full time on that.
  • We are newbies at 8 months on the road. Cannot imagine ever having a S n B again. We will stay traveling as long as health allows. Then, who knows? Maybe a couple of RV Chalets in different States.
  • Retired at 50 in 2003
    Hit the road FT in 2007
    Came off road in 2014
    Life thru a curve ....which is OK. Still miss the traveling.
  • Just over a year. We'll keep at it as long as we keep having fun. Based on the last year I see no end in sight.
  • We retired 9 ½ years ago, have slowed down so we only travel during summer months and sit still during winter. Maybe 3-4 more years of summer traveling - just depends upon our health.

  • Just over a year so far. We are hoping for at least 10, health permitting.
  • 1.5 years so far
    Not sure, as long as we are enjoying ourselves
