Almost everyone here and all the discussion is about techniques to help people get FI, but not what to do afterwards. As anyone who has been here a while knows, it's just not that complicated. I think the "what to do afterwards" part is extremely interesting and needed in this space. My wife and I are sort of half-way to FI right now, and we are questioning the wisdom of continuing to sprint towards the goal, rather than throttle back and let it happen slowly.
I am reading How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free right now, recently finished Escape Everything!, and finished up the entire back-catalogue of the New Escapeologist Magazine a few months back. I think these two guys would have a lot to offer.
Can I ask what you did as a career? Would it be possible to go back to work, but downshift gradually to retirement over time? What hobbies do you enjoy? Are there any you've wanted to pick up?
There's a book called Retire Happy, Wild and Free. It's mainly targeted towards older folks, but it covers the non-financial aspects of retirement pretty well. Also you might want to check out early-retirement.org. Again, it skews older, but it's a very good site that's a good deal more relaxed than bogleheads.org.
