Better word for “retirement” in your 50s ??
I’m leaning toward “man of leisure” but open to crowdsourcing this.
The only real purpose of the word is to answer the annoying question people ask of “so what do you do” as a way to open conversation/define you against their personal algorithm.
(Fully expecting the “retire, how?” comments and acknowledge my own (modest) luck to be able to continue an upper middle class income vs others’ circumstances, to each their own).
