- ryandrake 2y agoI mean, almost everyone will retire from work unless they die at their desk. We should stop thinking about retirement as if it is necessarily a binary switch where you "voluntarily deciding to stop working when old." We can be forced into retirement due to layoffs and a tough hiring market. We can be forced into retirement due to sickness or needing to care for a family member. Our bodies wear out, we get less cognitively sharp. It's not about whether or not we get the chance to retire--we will all eventually have to. So these people in their 30s today need to be planning for how they will deal with it, not worrying about whether they will deal with it.
