You know, in Australia there is no retirement age-one retires when one is ready-could be before 60, or even after 70(why not? These days we are physically n mentally more agile than our parents' generation). I like this policy. My aunt herself who is 78 this year and emigrated with family to Australia, is still helping out once weekly in the hospital she used to work. And I rmb even after before 68, she was still working full time. She finds satisfaction in that.(when she could more than live comfortably with her pension and her two professional sons' care).
So, instead of retiring (without any other plans for non-structured work that might bore my days, make me restless) i have now resolved to have a full time pay, adopt a 'part-time' mentality. This means a full-time life outside work. Now, I am into building up rships/networking/up keeping hobbies for life after retirement.
