Once they reached retirement age, were they better off retiring or continuing to work?

I’ve read that the average life expectancy for ancient Romans was 35 years. If Roman soldiers were held to serve the army for 25 years, then for most soldiers that meant until they died.

I read somewhere sometime that if they made it to retirement they would be allocated land to settle with a family. One way to build up the Roman population near camps and forts.

Thanks. Very interesting.
The estimate from the video was that about half survived until retirement (25 years of service). I’d be curious what most of them did afterwards.

Probably better than their opponents ... but they didn’t have the FDA, CDC and Fauci to hasten their deaths through vax campaigns.

If they were in Varus’s legion they didn’t need to worry about retirement.
