I have just retired upon reaching 55 from active work, so finding myself with a lot of time to pursue the
many things i want to do.
Ready to Travel now : Making trips to Malaysia, Thailand, China and Europe, backpacking or budget tour. Very much like to visit the retirement vilage that Vincent and you have talked about, to learn about other cultures, lifestyles and people.
Interested activities: Golf, cycling, sailing, bowling, sking,snorkelling,fishing,table-tennis, tennis, badminton, football, darts, nooker/pools ,all table/card games, karaoke, music listening or jamming along,etc. Food, all kinds, local, Burger or Mexican mainly to hunt around or pot-lucking. Currently also re-searching into Qi Qong, and Feng Shui as a study.
Others: Researching into internet small businnes and Investments (CFD in forex,shares,Indices -this is only available with the latest big player IGmarkets, a remisier who works in POEMS says the rates and info
are much better).
Very interested also to explore the idea of the Retirement village in Malaysia, Thailand, etc to study possibility of a time share setup, that way you can spend a few months here and there.
Glad to know all of you here, and Cheers to the founders and committee members of SHC and their good efforts.

Ronald, I am still 10 years more to retirement. You are as eager as my friends whom I have seen going into retirement. I see many SilverHairs wanting to do so many things when they retire, equally i see the same list in your member profile.
With the SilverHairsClub gathering, the most important action to start is to meet more people at the monthly gatherings. This ensure we all know one another, and with the new found friends, we are more confident of going out among other SilverHairs. Your activities can be found among other members.

Hi Ronald, I see you are planning a retirement project. You should put your thoughts in this Post.

Hi Ronald,
I am 53 and new to the SHC. I came to know about SHC when I was surfing and I was attracted by the many activities which allowed members to interact and share their experience.
Like you, I have many interests, such as squash, table tennis, badminton, volleyball, swimming, jogging and hiking on the outdoor part. I also love travelling. Just returned from a 9-days trip to Tibet. For indoor activities, I used to read and collect coins and stamps. I am into shares and had been in it for the past 15 – 20 years.
I intend to be at the SHC function later this month.
Hope to see you there!
Hi All,
You’re all a bunch of lucky guys who is waiting to RETIRE and had travelled to so many places. Is still too early for me as I’m scouting around for a job as I got retrenched just 2 months ago. Give me some time, I will be joining you to go here or there or even organised activities.
Ronald
You an interesting guy, full of activities. Me still working hard love to play but don’t have money and time. But nothing will stop me from exercise.
Ronald,
I’m quite surprise to see a long list of actvities you are involved, I am sure that there is something I can learn from you – “Interested activities: Golf”, do let me know when you are free to have a game. Cheers!
Best health, Raymond
