Question

Retirement planning

I see that sometime last night, I crossed over the 30,000 thumb plateau.  So that got me thinking about retirement.  Based on my age, if I retire next year the 30,000 thumbs would mean that I could withdraw 122 thumbs per month to live on.  I think that is enough to get me by, but I was just looking for a little advice.  Should I take the 30,000 and roll them over into toes or should I stick with thumbs?  I'm not sure if you can do a tax free exchange to knees or elbows but my barber told me that a rollover to toes would be a good move.  Anybody have any thoughts on the matter?

It's not my area of expertise but I heard on Tik Tok that it's bad to be "all thumbs".  Barbers generally have great advice on this but you may also want to get a second opinion from at least one bartender.  Or really any profession that starts with "bar".  Barbarians.  Barnstormers.  Barytones.  Bar hose cleaners.

I tried asking a bardolater but all I got for an answer was - "to be or not to be, that is the question".  That really didn't help me much.

Jeff, 'ethically' you should really deduct all those *thumbs down* from way back when they were a part of this forum.  If that takes you too low to retire, just let me know.  I'll give you some of mine.

I don't think I ever received a thumbs down.  At least I don't remember getting any of those.  Back then everybody had a really good sense of humor and always appreciated my posts............................ But then again, I am getting older and my memory may not be as good as it used to be 😜

Now I'm worried about you & your memory .... is it the lutefisk or the Minnesota cold? 

*Shirley* you remember the bru-ha-ha over those downward thumbs; all of us old-timers do.  😘
