Well we are actually also aging more slowly, or at least some of us are, and we are more likely to be the working old people. I agree it would be nice to be able to retire, but half a lifetime in retirement probably won't work out for me or society. Already I have worked for 40 years and at a "real job" (one that could be described as a career) for 25 years. I don't see any possibility of retirement for probably 15 more years unless we get an unexpected windfall.

Agree on not living to 100. 85 is a good run and not sure I want to get older than that, bodies can only last a limited time no matter how well we treat them. But people my age, especially women, are predicted to live past 90, that's crazy. How am I supposed to make enough money to retire while I can enjoy it some AND live past 90?
