I'm of the opinion you only live once and have a right to act in such a way as makes you happy (provided you're not causing any direct harm to others, of course). I'm only 36 but would be happy to have retired five years ago if I had the means. I have plenty of other aspects to my life I'd rather spend my time on, and I though I don't hate my job or coworkers or anything like that, I don't see it as an important part of my identity. But for other people it's what gives them self-worth, contentment, and so forth. And just because you may be on in years doesn't mean you don't have every bit of a right to that as a younger person. Sure, there are other things out there that you or I might take satisfaction in. But if for others it's their work, then who am I to say otherwise? Indeed, there's so many things in this life that diminish if as you age, and so few advantages people have. If holding onto your job makes you happy, then go for it. I totally get your point of view, but I think I find the idea that people have an expiry date or have to make way a little sad. On a purely economic slant, you're right that the world is different in some ways than decades ago, but that works both ways. In a lot of area the older population is such a large part of the demographic that it would actually be a strain on the system if they all retired.

Just think of it this way: if the police were interested in paying attention to you, they are just as capable of driving across town to do so.

No harm in repeating good pictures :)

Indeed. I've been lucky enough to enjoy being on both sides of the equation. As long there's communication and limits are respected, there's a lot of fun to be had! Happy exploring. :)
