One day I'll retire, and the day after that I will still write code even though I'm no longer being paid to do it. And I'll still play my guitar every day even though I have no interest in being famous. I'll do both of those things for as long as I am able because they bring me joy.

When I retire (hopefully in a couple of years) I’m planning to get rid of my computer and smart phone. I might keep a Chromebook or something for email. I’m so over it all.

Same. I still kind of look forward to work Sunday night.

It's also the case with my other hobbies. Aside from chores and responsibilities, most of my days consists of doing things for fun. Sometimes it aligns with something people will pay me to do.

In my 30s now.
