No job is perfect but surely it should at least be a net positive, and not merely financially, n'est-ce pas? re health during retirement - good question!

There's no way my job leaves me "happier and physically and mentally healthier".<br /><br />In any case, it's probably not a good or realistic idea for people to plan on working in order to meet their financial needs in retirement. People don't realize how quickly one's health may deteriorate, especially after 65. We all hope we'll be healthy, but we may not be. The range of possible jobs available to a person may be narrowed, depending on individual health circumstances.<br /><br />I realize a lot of people with a weak financial plan and no pension wave everything off and assume they'll just keep working, but this is probably more fantasy than reality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
