Answer summary
If you hold a retirement extension of stay, you do not need to show a return ticket when entering Thailand. It's important to have obtained the retirement extension and any applicable multiple re-entry permits while you were in Thailand. If you are traveling back for the first time with this extension, you should be fine without an onward ticket.

The O/P holds a year long extension of stay based on retirement.

Okay, you're NOT gonna need to show a return ticket, BUT I'm confused. You CAN'T get a retirement extension or a multiple re-entry permit out side the country, yet you say this is your first time entering the country on it.
Then in another post you say you have a retirement visa & a multiple re-entry permit.
My question is; did you get a yearly extension of stay based on retirement and a multiple re-entry permit in thailand BEFORE you left,
OR
Did you buy a visa based on retirement at a thai consulate while you were out of thaialnd?

You mean a Retirement Visa, one year valid. If you did the Re-Entry before leaving the country, no problem, if you don't have, you will loose the Re. visa and have to start again!
