Money’s great for sure although it’s not everything for everyone.
Employment is a huge part of many peoples identity, especially after 50+ years in one profession.
Sadly, some retirees lose interest in life shortly after leaving the workplace and pass away. It’s probably not healthy however: for some work is life. It can be especially difficult if job loss is out of one’s control ; dismissal, health or no longer required. Always best to go out on one’s own terms which Bruce didn’t do here.
I’m thrilled Bruce is back at it once again and has a purpose in life he enjoys. Willing to bet he’d do it for free at this point. If it keeps him happy and healthy every one benefits.
