At 65 and you still ask people to work? Work until when? 80? Then die at 81?
We all know that you are rich and have a net worth of $5m and you still want to work. This is up to you but don't impose your ideas on others.
Everyone has the right to decide on when they want to retire. Those who value their free time more to pursue other interests, let them do so. As long as they have the means to support their retirement, let them be. They may prefer a simple retirement lifestyle and this is their choice. If your idea of retirement is to spend and spend, then go and work until you are very old and leave your millions behind for your children to fight over when you die. Good luck!

I think is just a pessimistic view on the previous user. The reason why I think the user say that is because of the uncertainty of whether your children will give him/her allowance. You also not sure whether you children will give you allowance right?
Certainly everyone has the right to retire, but there are many people cannot afford to retire due to the financial burden that they have (children didnt support them, family face financial issue and etc). Also you are imposing your "ideal" future to the other people here as well. So please say yourself first before saying others.
Also, it is right not to include allowance for children for your retirement plan. Because one day you wouldnt know that your children face difficulty in their finance, then instead they need your help. like that how you handle?
Do think thoroughly in your retirement plan, think of all the possible scenario.
