The unmarried man surnamed Chen, 30, hails from Foshan, Guangdong province in southeastern China.
He told the mainland media outlet Xiaoxiang Morning Post that he works part-time as an equestrian and archery coach at a gym after retirement.
Without a stable job, he earns about 6,000 yuan (US$820) a month.
Chen has a puppy called Little Bear and got a buffalo to keep his dog company.
