You're dealing with a generation retiring where a significant minority dedicated themselves to their jobs 100% to fulfill their family duty of being a provider. So they became boring ass people chasing overtime and money to the detriment of developing themselves as people.
Once these people retire, they don't know what to do with themselves.
I mean this is me to some degree. My job pays for everything. Is super important and I have to constantly be about the job in my life (unfortunately). I even like what I do to some degree, but all the same there is much more than it in this world.
you can, though, at any time and (mobility permitting) take up any kind of bizarre hobby.
clowning, clog dancing, building box cars, collecting skulls, yodelling...
Well time permitting as well. Heck I would love to just wake up and think about what things I can get done around the house and shopping and such so that in the evening I can watch a movie wihtout feeling guilty.
