Then he retired from the landscaping business decades later, sold his equipment and customer list, and tried to do the Florida retiree thing.

He failed. Between his inability to be still, his former customers were begging him to come back; that the yahoo that he sold the list to was not doing them justice. I didn't beg him to come back but it's true; the new guy was a moron. What landscaper starts work at 11am? Ridiculous. So, he came back, bought new equipment and got his list up and running again and did that for a few more years before Lyme forced him to stop. He's in his late 80s, btw.

Some people aren't meant to collect moss. I'm sure you'll find something to occupy your time that is fulfilling.
