[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Because I enjoy my job. I dont understand American obsession with retirement. But kids will most likely go to school in Europe. " How many years consecutively did you spend working 80+ hours a week? If you do that enough years in a row, retiring and doing absolutely nothing starts to seem mighty appealing.[/quote] i understand that, but why do you spend so much working? i would rather spend my whole life working reasonable hours than work 80 hrs a week only to retire and do nothing... i have been living here for some time and i concluded that americans really lack cultural models of moderation. not just in work, but also food, exercise, sex...[/quote] Because I'm in a profession where working those types of hours are the norm. You're right, at this point, having worked very hard for over 20 years, I don't want to have a "moderate" retirement.[/quote]
