[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I disagree with many posters' premise that if you're not formally occupied, you will decline quickly and die. There are personalities who do quite well with free time and nothing to do. My parents. Myself. My husband. We eat well, stay slim, exercise our minds, and above all, lower our stress levels. Retirement does not equal waiting to die, EVEN if you don't do much. [/quote] Sure. I agree with you. If your entire purpose in life is your career, then what is THAT? That might actually be the reason for an early decline...those people never understood living. When people quote stats, we have to understand all the tangentials involved before we can understand the real information. I taught for thirty five years. It was tough not to be defined as a teacher...weird, in fact. Then I realized that I could now live my life. And there is more to life. Some careers don't let people live, so they don't know how.[/quote]
