Back to school
Well, with retirement just over the horizon (7 years from August), I decided to go back to school to get my Masters, then possibly look into my options to get into law school.
I fugure since my twp does 100% reimbursement for school, why not get my next career lined up for when i retire (i will only be 50 years old).
Figuee, why not become a lawyer and .ake some money and not have to work 30 hours a week. I can take on as few or as many clients as I want, and my earnings will suppliment my pension (50% of my salary) which I can start collecting as soon as I retire...
But...
Let me tell u, I still hate school and homework.

My best friend is an attorney. While he plays hard, he works even harder. Too hard I think. Lots of responsibility. If he forgets something, the perception would be “I lost my case because my attorney is an asshole screwup.” I’d rather handle a man with a gun call.
Sounds fun, and lots of cops become attorneys during and after their career. Hell, our Chief is an attorney. I say do something else in retirement. Perhaps work for LEOKA. They impact a lot of officers, new & old, and save lives.
Retirement is only 6 years away for me, if I decide to go, which I probably will unless someone turns up pregnant. And being a big-dummy, with only a diploma and few measly college credits from the Fire Department (volunteer) I don’t see myself doing anything else except turnin’ wrenches and playing golf.
But you did say 100% reimbursement. That sounds really nice, not having a crap ton of college debt and you could do consulting or something else if you don’t like working for Dewey, Cheatem & Howe ;-)

Your plan sounds like a great idea to get your next career option off the ground why you have the opportunity to take advantage of 100% reimbursement.

No debt at all, and I would only do it here and there to suppliment my retirement income. Between that and all of my investments I should be able to live a pretty chill life, because its not a necessity for me to work at that point... just something to do...

Sounds great. You’re gonna be using big words in here on us, like Worcestershire and judiciary.
