I started second innings of my life from May 01, 2021 after taking voluntary retirement on April 30, 2021. I have planned my second innings much before taking decision on voluntary retirement. Spending time is a big challenge for many persons after retirement. But since I have done my retirement planning much earlier, I am not facing any challenge in spending time after retirement. I am gainfully utilizing my time from the very first day of my retirement. My daily activities after retirement are as under:
1. Intra-day trading in stock market
2. Reading Book
3. Learning Guitar
4. Extending helping hand in domestic work
5. Other miscellaneous works
Friends, among all the activities mentioned above, intra-day trading consumes my maximum time. Stock market starts at 9.15 am and closes at 3.30 pm every day from Monday to Friday. But for deciding the strategies and choosing trading stocks and its derivatives, I have to watch the financial news from 7.30 am and I have to finish my bath and breakfast before 9 am. Even after the close of stock market at 3.30 pm, I have to spend another half an hour in analysing my performance during the trading session and another half an hour in listening to the analysis of the market by the experts in news channel. As regards the risk management, I will provide details in another post.
I spend daily one hour in learning guitar and spend 45 minutes in reading books. I also spend my quality time by extending helping hand to my wife in domestic work. In this way, I am utilising my time gainfully after retirement. Intra-day trading is my main activity and also my passion. I am spending nine hours a day in intra-day trading from Monday to Friday and approximately the same hours of time I was spending in office before retirement. Then the question arise what is the difference after retirement? The major difference is that I do not have any boss after retirement, I am the owner of my time and I can do the work as per my choice and passion. The details of my daily routine activity will be provided in the next post.
Very nice planning. Carry on Sir.
