26 Aug 2022 – Go Retire Psychiatrist

Iowa State Fair Rubber Chicken Show!

I got a big kick out the Rubber Chicken Show at the Iowa State Fair, broadcast by Iowa PBS. I don’t need another reason to post it other than to make you laugh.

Plan for retirement, even if you don’t plan to retire. This means sound financial planning, developing other interests, and nurturing your relationships with significant others. Retire, even if you are not retired. Take enough time off periodically, and completely, with no connections to work, so that you can feel emotionally free from concerns about patients and practice. Of course, there is no reason to retire if you really love your work and relationships just as they are.
