[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One way to look at this - how many people do you know in their late 50’s/60’s who are still working high-stress jobs with kids already graduated from college? I know young people always say they love their work but I don’t know anyone in their late 50’s/60’s who is not looking forward to retirement or at least slowing down. If you are already making a high salary in your late 20’s/30’s, you should be able to plan well enough to have more options when you are older. [/quote] Are you kidding? My boss is 71, will not make any commitments to retiring. And it's not because of $$. This job is boss's life. There are at least a dozen people at my organization 65 and up who seemingly have no plans to retire. Because working is what defines their lives. [/quote] I really feel sorry for people who feel that way and cling on. So sad and pathetic. You know the old saying about how noone wishes they worked more st their death bed. [/quote] That's simply not true. There are a few lucky people who absolutely love their work. I worked with a guy who retired and then came back after 18 months. He said he really missed the job and missed being around young energetic people and that it sucked being surrounded by old people like himself. He wasnt sad and pathetic. Hea a geeat guy amd full of enerny and a positive attitude . We happily hired him back [/quote]
