A little different story here. I am going to be 64 in April but did not have plans to retire anytime soon until this past Christmas. I did retire about 11 years ago, and after a year decided that I had to do something.
A good friend and I started a new company up and 10 years later it is going fine. We pay ourselves a decent salary and really don't work that hard. My wife retired 10 years ago as she had an awesome pension plan (me) but the real reason she quit is that it pissed her off leaving me unsupervised each day.

Then this past Christmas, my little brother who was 61 was feeling ****ty and jumped in the shower, had a dizzy spell and wacked his head on the coping. My sister in law tried to get him to go to emergency but he told her no F..ing way was he gonna sit at emergency on Christmas eve and then went to bed and never woke up.
He had just sold his business and had spent several months getting his cabin redone so they could live there full time.
That is having me rethink my near and far future
