Just work part time instead of full time or do contract work for several months a year

Yeah, I thought about it. I'm a manager at my company, and my actual software development skills are pretty antiquated. Could probably do requirements and architecture, but they don't need me for that (certainly not at my pay level). I can't be a part time manager. I'm guessing there are a couple things they'll ask me back for, weird niche experience I have, but those things don't happen every year.

I'll probably be fine. I'm don't get bored very easily. We're planning to relocate when I retire, so settling in and exploring will soak up a lot of time for a while. Should be fine.
