I'm only 55 (almost 56), but I often tell people that I'd gladly retire right now if I could. I'm not driven to work and have lots and lots of hobbies. I'd have no trouble filling my time -- I'd probably volunteer at 1-2 heritage railways, help out at model train clubs, volunteer more at church, help maintain hiking trails (being an avid hiker), etc.
Having said all that, I'm sure it would feel weird for awhile not having to work (might feel lost), but I'm sure I'd get over it. I would have no trouble keeping busy and if I ever did get too busy, I'd just take breaks when needed!
The only problem is, is that I'm probably going to HAVE to work until I'm 70 or even older. I got married late and my kids are only now entering their teenage years!
hock: 
Then there's university ...
