Great article. I appreciated the info. Personally, I love working and hope I can do it til I go home to be with the Lord. Keeps us young! The job may change (though I hope not. I love caregiving and I love writing ), but the constant learning is so good for our morale and our brains.

Meaghan, I love this idea that keeping active, i.e. continue working, will help you feel more alive. As a teacher who could have retired, I appreciate the daily contact with youngsters; they make me feel younger. Of course, many would be retirees have had to postpone their withdrawal from work because the recession wiped out their funds. For them, it may not be so rosy.

Good tips…thanks for the post! Your first tip is probably the most obvious, but also the most helpful one. Putting off retirement as long as possible will make your financial obligations easier to handle. Plus, working will keep you active and more alive!
