Retirement project grows from packing crates to pet cages
In Washington Walter Chadwick at 70 proves retirement need not mean idle time. Using old packing crates and power tools he builds pet cages and birdhouses for pet shops, airlines, and veterinarians, turning a Civil Service pension into a year round business while keeping Social Security limits in mind. He works 10 to 12 hours when well, 4,000 dollars income last year with 2,600 dollars in expenses, and reinvests to stay under the earnings cap.
