How should you spend your retirement? DAY ONE

Join a book club. This will enable you to get together once a month with a sociable group of people who also aren’t sure how to correctly operate a Kindle. For an hour or so, you’ll spend time discussing the last book you’ve read and how the movie was better. Then, you’ll spend the next hour or so arguing about the next book you should all read before ultimately agreeing on a book nobody likes and nobody will finish in time for the next book club meeting. Then you will all start yawning because it’s almost nine o’clock and getting near bedtime. (See this site for further instructions.)
