When I say retired I mean retired from the US Army and I was only 38 years old when I completed my 20. I have a very challenging and exciting job but it will never replace the level of excitement I experienced while on active duty. Now the pay is a whole different story.

since I retired I've never been so bored!!
You need new goals, challenges, things to strive for to keep you engaged and make your life exciting and meaningful.
Otherwise you get into a nasty rut.
The whole concept of retirement as a time when you stop striving for anything is wrong.
People always need goals to strive for no matter how old they get.
Humans are not happy unless we are always working towards goals of some kind, things that challenge us and light a fire of passion.
If you stop striving, then basically you're not living.
