[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You mean ... Bezos and the other idiots? Those people hoard money. It's an illness.

Everyone else that has enough money to retire but they don't can't stand being alone with themselves. They will say they love to work, but they mean they hate being alone with themselves.[/quote]

they have high standards, which is usually the main reason.  Or it's pride and trying to prove something by the time they are too frail.  It's not about being stimulated and engaged, there are plenty of hobbies or non profit type of work, volunteering or even starting a business if you want this, you can also scale down if you are in some professions.  Many many people toil in high stress jobs with long hours and/or travel to earn as much as they can for as long as they can withstand it because they are accustomed to a certain lifestyle they can't give up.  This is also true for people who aren't as high earning. Nobody likes to live scrimping and counting pennies for the rest of their lives, it's a scary idea for people who are used to having disposable income for a long time.
