I’m still working around 75 and my sister is still working at 78. I love what I do: guest house, teaching business English and culture, and 30 years of massage. I can’t imagine stopping what I’m doing! I especially think I have something to offer the 40-something management group since I’ve created and owned several businesses since I was 26. Working is a joy and my Spiritual practice. I’m also taking off for a month to visit family in CA and then on to Spain. Each day is what I want it to be and I am grateful for my many blessings, especially the blessing of health!
Nice conversation, with a lot of valid points! And your guest scored a few points of her own when she started by clarifying that she was talking about white collar workers for the most part! Some blue collar workers do irreparable damage in a 40 or 50 year period, and working till they are 70 is just not realistic! But having a reason to get up everyday is important, even if your body doesn’t want to cooperate! Transitioning into something you can do, getting your mind right, and planning years ahead are good advice! Thanks for the video!
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
I’ve worked hard to save about $700,000 for retirement, and now I’m ready to turn my savings into a paycheck. But how much can I afford to withdraw from savings and spend is what I don’t know. If I spend too much, I risk being left with a shortfall later in retirement. But if I spend too little, I may not enjoy the retirement I envisioned. What’s your advice on this please?
Trading years of life for money is not a good thing imo. If you can do it, do it as quickly as able as you will NEVER get those years back. Experts want you to work longer to keep your money in their systems. Course if you actually do love your job, them have at it.

Time is the one asset you can't get back. Use it wisely.
