Some people say they don't know what to do with all their time when they retire. I feel like I could live three lifetimes and still have plenty more I wanted to do.

You just have to prioritise and cull based on your own personal set of factors. Things along the lines of:

- what makes you (the most?) money?

- what keeps you healthy?

- what keeps you sane?

- what do you enjoy the most?

- what maintenance is necessary?

All the things you don't have time for, make a list of them as backups in case others fall through.

One somewhat odd thing of mine is to delay gaming until I'm actually less able to do physical pursuits that I enjoy and contribute to my physical health. This is partially a reaction to being essentially gaming-sober for a good decade and a bit; but I still hear the call every now and then.

P.S. just wait until you have kids...
