If the author of this so called article thinks retirement is bad, then he should not do it. I do not work for the the “state”, I work for myself and my family. I work to live, to put food on the table, shelter for my family, etc. I do not life for work. I have many interests to pursue, given the time to pursue them.
Whether I work for myself, work for a business, work at a position that is not challenging, work part-time or not at all is simply my God given right to pursue happiness and is only my business and my family’s business.
You are so SO right. Feeling sorry for someone who just wants to cut his lawn, or admiring someone who wants to sail around the world, it all boils down to:
IT’S THEIR BUSINESS and may they enjoy their choices.
