I had to divide the subject sentence to figure out what you are asking.
In one sense it seems you are asking if I have self confidence since I retired.
The answer is yes I do but it has nothing to do with the fact that I am retired.
The second part of your question seems to be do I have self confidence when I travel. I don't travel so it's of no concern to me. Even if I was healthy I don't have an interest in traveling.
If I was to re-write your question I would have asked:
Do you need self confidence when you travel.
The way you have written it written that a retired person needs self confidence to be able to travel

OOPS..........I messed that sentence up. Should be:
The way your question is written it seems you are saying that a retired person needs self confidence to be able to travel.

Self confidence ... a feeling of trust in one's abilities, qualities, and judgment.
So... do you need a feeling of trust in your abilities, qualities, and judgment if you are retired and spending most of your time traveling about?
galrads: you’re just busting my family jewels again... i might be saying if you no longer need to compete and work for a living to the point you spend most of your time able and traveling most of the time seeing the world... well is self confidence needed or useful or even relevant? Or i could be saying blah blah blah or whatever i said to begin with.
You just can't ask a straight question can ya.
i might be saying if you no longer need to compete and work for a living to the point you spend most of your time able and traveling most of the time seeing the world... well is self confidence needed or useful or even relevant
Can anybody makes sense of that question. Please, somebody help me
Why can't you just ask.............Is self confidence needed to travel around the world?
You don't have to be retired to travel the world.
You complicated the question and now I don't have anymore confidence

I'm going to bed
If this is what happens when people retire I'll keep working
A credit card with a high-dollar limit A package of DEPENDS in the correct-fitting size A cane or walker to help stabilize your unsteady gait A bottle of motion-sickness pills Make sure your medical insurance is up-to-date
That should cover nearly everything, BUT..............in case the aformentioned suggestions prove to be insufficient, make sure that you carry the correct information on where to ship the body.
rent2own: No, Luv.......that is where the high- dollar limit credit card comes into play............Hope u r better .
Jajajajajajajajajajja... Maybe it´s because I can't count on mine... Here, my Titanium or whatever the name of my VISA credit card is, doesn´t even let me buy a piece of chewing gum... That's why I never use it... Jajajajajajajajajaja... And I have to confess I prefer to use my debit card... I hate to think I have things to pay... Hate having debts... So that´s another reason why I never use it... I am feeling a little better, Mr. Rent-a-Larry... Thank you so much for caring!...

Let me know your preferred brand of chewing gum, and I'll send ya a CARE PACKAGE. jajajajajajajaja

Omg... You reminded me of something... When I was like ten years old, one of my Dad's employees taught me how to blow bubbles... Man, I became a pro... And then I learned how to blow one inside the previous one... Jajajajajajajajajajaja... I don't think I have a favorite brand, but... You know what I adore, since I was a child?... Those red gumball machines?... Omg... I would have one at home, just as a decoration... And another thing I would love to have is a cool jukebox with lots of lights... Those two are pending on my list of gifts I want...
I have a friend who I used to go camping with him and his family many years ago....but anyway, in his home , he had a jukebox- style record player..........I don't remember whether it played the 45's or the 78's, but I always thought it was cool that they had it. Haven't been out to see them for quite some time, and I need to do that. He had a stroke, and it affected him somewhat. He made some of the BEST CHILI I have ever eaten. They were great people to have as friends...................and unfortunately, as time changes things, their kids became parents, and we kinda grew apart, as they became more involved as Grandparents, and quit camping as much as they once did. Life happens..................

I just thought it would be nice to go camping ONE last time... I would make that phone call if I were you...

Yeah, I can just see Willy sitting on top of the jukebox when you get it, bopping along with the music.

Awwwwwww... My sweet little baby... I should make a video of him singing and dancing... It's the most beautiful and funny thing... He melts my heart every single day...
I really doubt that they do any camping now, especially after Terry had his stroke. One time I had cut-up a trailer load of firewood for our campfire, and I think we burned the entire load of it over a weekend. We enjoyed just sitting around the campfire at night , just enjoying the warmth of the fire, and talking. AAAHHH ....those were " the good 'ol days !!! "

Well... I think you have nothing to lose just by asking... If they don't go camping anymore maybe they have a backyard and you can pretend it's the woods or something!... Jajajajajajajajjajaja... Just having a nice time with people that were part of your life in a good way, is good for your soul... And I bet it would make Terry feel alive again... Anyway, that's up to you... I know you will make the best choice, Mr. Rent-a-Larry...
Yeah, Terry was always pretty much into sports, and I have a book or two that I think he would enjoy having, if not for himself, maybe for his sons. I always hate to go visit people when the weather is bad, coz I don't wanta track up their carpet, etc. So perhaps I can kinda get things here straightened up, and drop in on them next Spring. Their oldest son LOVED tomatoes, so I stopped by a couple of times with a bag-full. One time, no one was home, so I just left it hanging on the door knob. Figured maybe they would know who had left them...............you know........the excess-produce fairy...jajajajajajajaja

Jajajajajajajaajajajajajajja... I love that... I love people that do sweet and kind things for others... It's priceless to see the smile on a person's face when you are able to do something nice for them or lend them a helping hand... It's a wonderful caress to one´s soul... I am so proud of you, Mr. Rent-a-Larry fairy!...

I guess it's because of the way I was raised ..............

It depends where you are going to and for what reasons. I've been in the UK and Scottland many times, love it over there and maybe in 2021 I will go there again. Never been in Wales, was planning it for this winter time, but it isn't worth it, having only 2 or 3 days time. Also been in Czech republic, well that part of Europe isn't my thing. Love Vietnam, been there and going back this summer, for 2 months.
But, you'll never see me in a muslims country. I wouldn't feel safe there.
rent2own: I guess it's because of the way I was raised ..............
I know... I was raised that way... And not just by words but by example... And that's the best way... I can't be more grateful to have been raised that way...
secretagent09: Gal, your thread wasn't a total waste. We found out a few things about Mr. Rent and Ms. Melody.
We know Mr. Rent and his friend Larry used to go camping
We know that Mr. Rent is a considerate person cause he didn't want to dirty Terry's carpet
We know that Terry had a stroke and that he is retired
We also know that Melody's parrot Willy likes to dance to music
We know that Melody really wants a jukebox
We know that Melody is a champion at blowing bubbles
The biggest thing we know is that Melody has taught Mr. Rent how to JAJAJAJAJAJA
However, Galrad, do you know yet if we need self-confidence to travel around the world.
1) Whenever you see Melody1671 in any thread, you can be sure it's a great thread, just because I make it that way... JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAAJJAJAAJAJJAJ... Omg... I am terrible...
2) There are so many people in this world, the web, this site spending so much time and energy spreading jealousy, envy, bitterness, bad vibes, that I love to counteract their toxic actions spreading happiness,love, fun, laughter, good vibes... Somebody messaged me here and told me they loved me on CS because I had a bubbly personality and I was so much fun to be around... And I can't be more proud but also more grateful to make anyone have that opinion and thoughts about me... I am what you all see and read... And that won't change anytime soon and because of anyone...
3) Mr. Rent-a-Larry makes it so easy to interact with him... He is adorable, educated, witty, ultra funny... What else can you ask for?...
4) I absolutely ADORE your post... It melted my heart to read it... The perfect words, the perfect emoticons... You rock, girl!... Once again, thank you, sweet soul!... And have a wonderful day!...
