I work 10-11 hour days already and plan to work past 70, anyway. 5 or 6 days a week.

Same here. 10 - 11 hours a day. But barely making ends meet.

Been that way for a long time now. Much better than it was 4 to 6 years ago but all I do is work.

Not sure how much longer I can hold out like this. Maybe a part time job working 15 hours a day, three days a week, whats Slim’s number? :)

- and PS - man, would I love to take an actual vacation some day...

and how old are you know?

I had no problems working double shifts even into my fifties. I could recover and still do a bang up job no problem. That has not been the case in my sixties. I can no longer do even a shift and a half. After too many work days and not enough time to recuperate I am slower at what I do... not as alert, don’t make the best decision always, and I get cranky.

OIf you are one of those type A people good on you.... not everyone is. Even when we were an agricultural society people hit an age where others took over and they did less and less in the fields
