Living with Williams Syndrome, the 'opposite of autism'

When I retire at 45, I plan to work as a bagger at a whole foods, just for something interesting to do.

I got the idea from a bagger I met at my local whole foods. He was previously a developer and made a ton of money and retired early. So, he thought it was a fun gig.

Just something to think about next time you look down at the bagger. They may actually have more money in the bank than you. I know - the odds are low, but it just could be.

I have no idea why you're being downvoted. While it isn't my idea of an ideal retirement job, if that's what strikes your fancy then why is that a bad thing?

It's as if some people reject the possibility that one could be happy without a mansion with a 3-car garage stocked with Audis and BMWs and annual trips to the tropics on a personal yacht.

Is this a thing? An old neighbor was in a similar situation...
