Why you asking?

My 5 year plan is to hang on until I can get on Medicare if it is still out there, and then coast until I can retire.

I don't have one but I need to get one!

Yes...in fact, I have a chart where I keep short-term through long-term goals and I update it monthly as things progress to account for variables an unseen changes. Everyone needs a roadmap to follow or they are just wandering aimlessly.

I have been retired for over 23 year and live one day at a time. I do plan for some travel and camping experiences but rarely more than 1 month in advance.

Yeah, not to make any 5 year plans!

Learn from the past plan for the future but live for today

That's a fool's errand in my view. No one sees very clearly even a year ahead these days. I try to anticipate trends further out but I think making an actual plan that far in advance is being too rigid.

I don't have a 5 year plan, but I do have a day to day plan.
And that is learn something new every day, and do what I can to help others.

I was thinking something along the lines of 60 months. That sounds like a good plan to me.

I see people make plans all the time... then shit happens that makes their plans impossible.

My plan
Make sure I have more money coming in than going out.

My life is very simple, uncomplicated and I seldom experience stress. Unlike all those persons who make plans...

Unbelievable. I've scanned down through these and only #Fanburger understands the importance of this. #GypsyofNewSpain at least asked a logical question.

I don't even buy green bananas any more.

I don't even have a five day plan

Actually, I have a one-year plan with next April as a rough deadline. In that time I would like to meet goals professional (more income), personal (at least casual dating), and creative (acting & performing on a regular basis). I do intend next spring to assess my progress per these stated goals and formulate subsequent yearly plans, and possibly establish goals to achieve by my next landmark birthday, four-plus years from now. I didn't always make these plans, but this year I believed it necessary to take definitive and quantifiable actions to truly live the life I want.
