Retirement Sentiments That Can Be Used

in a Retirement Toast at Retirement Parties

Retirement sentiments or retirement wishes are what others say to the retired or the soon-to-be retired, to let them know how they affected the people with whom they worked, and to extend the best fortunes for the retired and soon-to-be retired to retire happy.

The following best wishes for retirement and retirement sentiments may make great ideas for retirement parties or retirement cards. You may also want to use them in your in retirement letters and retirement speeches.

Retirement Sentiments Image #1

 

#1 of Our Top-10

May your biggest need in retirement be a calendar because you have so many retirement activities to pursue.

#2 of Our Top-10

May your retirement be such that every day seems like Sunday.

#3 of Our Top-10

May your retirement allow you to finally attain the freedom that you have always wanted. As The World's Best Retirement Book states, freedom is when you can get up in the morning when you want to get up; go to sleep when you want to go to sleep; and in the interval, work and play at the things you want to work and play at — all at your own pace.

#4 of Our Top-10

May there be a whole new kind of life ahead of you, full of lots of wonderful experiences just waiting to happen. Some call it "retirement" — but you, of course, will experience it as bliss.

#5 of Our Top-10

May your retirement be like the experience of a kid being out of school for the summer — but the summer never ends. At the same time, may your retirement allow you to do what you don’t like as little as possible and what you like as much as possible.

#6 of Our Top-10

To borrow from a quote from Francis Bacon, may your retirement be best in four things — old wood best to burn, old wine best to drink, old friends best to trust, and old authors best to read.

#7 of Our Top-10

May you know how to retire happy and allow your retirement to, as the Chinese proverb advises, "Always take an emergency leisurely."

#8 of Our Top-10

May your retirement allow you to forget how old you are. Of course, this will become more important the older you get.

#9 of Our Top-10 Retirement Wishes to You

May your retirement allow you to live an extra long life and see those enraged who will be responsible for paying your pension for such a long time.

#10 of Our Top-10

Be happy to retire — because you are a long time dead!
— from How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free by Ernie Zelinski

Bonus for Our Top-10 Retirement Wishes to You

Irish Retirement Blessing
May you always have work
for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold
always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright
on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain
to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend
always be near you.
And may God fill your heart
with gladness to cheer you.
