This thread is making me smile and I really hope we continue to get some wise advice from the experienced folks on here.
We are in a very similar situation, but not quite. I turn 55 next month and will be retiring 2 days after my birthday. I am not a wealthy man, but everything is paid off and I expect to pay cash for our first new trailer in the next month or two.
My pension will be modest, but we haven't lived an extravagant lifestyle during our 32 year marriage. We've been planning for an RV lifestyle for awhile now and it's coming close, we want to do this while we are still young and healthy.
Our plan originally was to do the US thing during a bit of the winter months but we'll wait until the dollar parity is a bit closer. In the meantime, Canada is large enough to keep us occupied for a good while.
It's a funny feeling, on one hand I wonder where the years behind me went, but on the other I can't wait to live the ones in front of me.
