My stepfather was a managing partner at an accounting firm. He got bought out by one of the big guys.
4 months after retiring he started consulting. He doesn't need the money, he needs something to do other than golf and he has no hobbies.
The kids want him to travel etc but he's happier working..... which is fucked in my view.
My father has retired multiple times. Then he keeps going out and finding new jobs like in real estate and making more money. My parents were very stingy with sharing, they spent all their money on random shit and properties that they'd then take a loss on. It's really sad.
