When you hear that someone is retiring, it doesn’t always mean that they actually don’t like the job. People retire because it’s been a hell of a ride (old age). They’ve done this for so many years and they finally want to rest and live some other life. How you’ll truly know if they hate the job or they just want to quit cause they are old is by asking the retired people around you. Ask them how much they loved their job, and I believe that you’ll hear some tell you that it was fun but they just want to spend more time around nature or something else that just isn’t the work-life vibe.
My view on retirement in my locality, they don't want to retire just because they want to rest or spend time with their family, from my observation old men don't want to get retired but not all it depends on the pay cause after retirement not all companies pay for pension especially private companies and when there is no proper money or investment during the early age they can't afford the standard of living, this is where the problem lies, I know a lot of retired workers and they never wanted to stop working they left cause the job has an age limit.
The other set they just don't want to stop working because of the love of the job and they end up decreasing their age before applying for the job, we find people like this in the government sector but definitely people like this will get old and can't work.

Working for years is tiring and they are paying you for the time and is not has if the pay is enough, people working for people only few people enjoy their jobs. Only politicians enjoy their job in my country any other person is just struggling and looking for a way to get a better life. Retiring without good money is just a annoying retirement because after spending do many year in service you start first for for your send off money which is not easy to get in my region. People are always scared that if they quite were do they start from and you have to break loose of some jobs and start start something better for their selfs. In does jobs their are days you will enjoy your job but to me jobs in office is bandage and consumes a lot of time.

What term retirement usually denotes to is, to stop working. People often don't like job, so to retire usually tends to be on top of the list. However, if one likes what he does, he will do something similar to pass the time even after retirement.

Now, I'll be honest, I dunno what I am driving at but I wanted to spark topic about retirement. Now, you go,

Retirement conditions are not the same in every country. In the country where I live, if you have not saved while you are working, the salary you will receive when you retire will not be enough. People who work outside of certain jobs receive very low salaries when they retire, depending on their profession, so many of them still continue to work. This situation reveals that the state needs re-planning regarding retirement.

In summary, if you want to live a good life when you retire in the country where I live, you need to save while you are working and make good use of your savings. Otherwise, the pension you receive will only serve to feed you.

Retirement is the time one should enjoy the benefits for  the years of actively working or serving a boss inorder to retire at an age as this.
No much risky business to spend frivolously on should be attempted and if there's still a passion to pursue a dream, please do, because the next of kin would be waiting to inherit all we had worked for without as little as a  thought .
Enjoying retirement will be better by doing things that are useful for ourselves because if we have retired and are still chasing dreams that we still cannot achieve, of course this will really tire us out, as you said if we do too much work. At retirement age, of course we won't have time to relax to enjoy this time and we also won't necessarily be able to enjoy the results of what we do.

it's true like that, retirement is better used as well as possible by doing useful things or by relaxing, but try to think about this, "work hard when young so that old age can relax to enjoy the results". i myself have this principle, by always working hard to produce what I want. of course so that when I retire I can enjoy the results of my hard work, because I don't want my retirement to be used to relax but not enjoy the results or nothing is produced from working hard.

I think working hard at a young age is a must, because it will determine us in the future. also with us working hard there is nothing wrong because I myself have a desire that must be achieved, no matter how hard it is to run it or how many problems there are, I believe in the principle of "effort will not betray results". therefore I worked hard at a young age so that I could produce something worth enjoying. whether other people will agree or not with this, I do not intend to force, because everyone has their own choices in making their life choices.

For me, the term retirement refers to not being forced to do any work, so that if I do not go to work, I will not struggle to pay the rent or buy the necessities of the day. It may not necessarily mean getting older as much as having enough money for the rest of my life if I decide to live a normal life. Or in other words, according to my country, the amount of $2,500 is sufficient for an average life, and therefore I consider retirement as my obtaining one million and $200,000 as sufficient costs for 40 years from now.
If you don't have a job, no boss or manager will force you to work to get paid. It is still possible to have a job and not being forced to do the work. I'm talkin about free-lancing jobs. We are our own boss and manager here, in a way that we can work anytime that we like.

Not working and at the same time not struggling for the expenses is also possible. Just marry a rich partner Cheesy, or just build a profitable business. Indeed, we don't need to be old to decide for a retirement but to have an enough money is necessary. $2.5k per year seems cheap but acquiring $1.2m dollars seems insane. And there is still no assurance if we can still live for the next 40 years.

if you want to retire you can do what you did before but couldn't do it because there was no time or something was a priority at the time and you couldn't do it.
Ordinary people will garden, fish, raise animals.
Maybe my advice can remind you of events from your past.
Everyone has to take a break from working life at a certain time, Because then at that age there will be no more energy and ability to work ,that is retirement. I also have a dream to make garden and I will make a fish farm. But I can't confirm that at the moment because I have to enough money at that time to do these things.

the idea of working nonstop until my retirement comes terrifies me i don’t want to spend my entire life confined deep in work and not to be able to appreciate life while i’m still young i feel like if i wait until retirement to really have an adventure i would regret it but i would not be able to do anything since i can’t possibly go back in time

You shouldn't have to wait until you quit working to find happiness and enjoy life. 

The old idea of working hard for years just to relax when you're old has become increasingly outdated.  The world is transforming quickly, and that plan for retirement might not work down the road.  Instead of only working to save up for later, you should look into making money other ways too.  With the internet and stuff now, you can earn passively and still do what you love.  Why wait until you have gray hair to start living fully? Do it now while you have the energy and inspiration.  There are options now to earn good money doing what you love if you're willing to think outside of the old retirement box.

Absolutely right! as we've grow older, sometimes it's quite difficult to achieve our dreams and we only go to the things that are helpful for us to survive, but it depends to a person because sometimes the things that they really want is the things that will help them to enjoy their retirement days. it gives them a satisfaction and fullfillment which is equivalent of relaxations in their life.

Now, I'll be honest, I dunno what I am driving at but I wanted to spark topic about retirement. Now, you go,
Pension will indeed be quite a complex topic to discuss. Because there are so many topics that need to be discussed regarding retirement. In fact, the term retirement now doesn't just mean old people who have to stop working because they have reached retirement age. But nowadays it has become quite a trend in society, especially among young people who have planned their lives so that they can retire while they are still young. And usually these young people mean the term that we actually usually call financial freedom. Because to be able to retire at a young age, of course someone must really have thorough financial preparation. Like having enough savings to last a lifetime or having passive income that continues to flow even though we have stopped working. Usually by investing or by owning a company that is managed by people we trust.

Sadly, currently there are many parents who have reached retirement age but they cannot stop working yet. Because they still need money to meet their needs. So they are forced to continue working even though their energy is starting to weaken because they are no longer young.

What term retirement usually denotes to is, to stop working.
That is an inaccurate definition, retirement is where your employment contract status must be terminated after reaching a certain period of work which is generally regulated in state law or internal regulations of the company or superior. This has absolutely nothing to do with people wanting or not liking their jobs. If you don't like your job, you can leave before you retire.

Having a favorite job and a job that makes money always forces us to choose. In life, I have heard many people talk about a job they love that brings them a stable income, but if not, I think it is the passion for that job or perhaps they are the type of people who do not attach too much importance to material things.

To be honest, I also wished that something I loved could help me pay for everything in life, but the harsh truth gave me a slap to wake up that my own limited capacity had not allowed me to do anything. Allow me to freely do what I think. There are many forced things that make us stressed, but we still have to accept them and go with them until we are allowed.

It helps keeping link with your own industry even after you have officially retired. In businesses there is no official retirement but passing on the baton to the next of kin or something similar.

You want to lead a healthy retirement, try to be active more so in household work and in helping the younger generation grow. Stay involved in the family work and dont be a grouchy old person. That way your mind will stay fresh and avoid the boredom and gradually more diseases will creep up your prescriptions.

Take more vacations but be mindful of people around you. Not every person has a happy retirement, but it is possible with effort.

You still have to do something after retirement, do you know that you will get bored at one point? Every challenges in our lives are most times adventurous and this is why it's bad to do something you don't have passion for, if you are doing a job for money only you will hate the job easily.

Even after retirement and you don't do anything, well I believe it's not healthy, you can't just be by yourself not going about stressing yourself, you need to do some things.

My own retirement plan is to reduce my stress on money making and go the easier route using my money to make more money, also I would have grow older by the time too, it's already normal to reduce stress and enjoy the rest of my days.

A person can get retirement only at the age which government mentioned in the rules of a specified job. I think the age after 60 is the age which is for rest so if someone is active enough after 60 years then they can do another job because after retirement its up to a person desire that what they wish to do.

When a person is engaged in a government job then he cannot do another work but after retirement he get an opportunity to be a part of another job. Now a days inflation is so higher that even after retirement a person wants to earn more because expenses cannot be handle with a single salary. A person wants to create ways of earning so age does not matters currently and if someone retired from one job then surely then are in search of getting another one to fulfill their needs.

I know this is what the world is and how it works but don't you realize how fucked up the concept of it is? You literally have to kill yourself by working for years/decades on end, and the only recompense you get for doing so is a pat on the back and a hallway pass for you to be able to enjoy your last remaining years on life. I don't know about you but I don't want to retire like that my dude. Retirement for me is being able to make the most out of my life and my time without having to worry about my finances at all, and I think you could achieve that with fair ease if you happen to know about financial freedom and are able to integrate it in your life.

Make no mistake, I like the idea of having no worries in your sunset years, but you could also do that with no problem if you shoot for an early retirement plan.

In our country retirement is not something that most people think about, not unless you are privileged. Most people work their ass off as long as they can, even working with a minimum income in their old age.
This applies to most countries.

There's no word anymore about retirement, the thing is as long as you can work your ass off until your death then that's all what a person needs to do.

Go to places like Singapore and Japan, you'd see people working even they're already old. The work culture has been sticked to them and there's no thought of them going into retirement.

I guess that the new generation still has some good thoughts on this topic about retiring when they are able to. Because if you talk to someone young about this matter, they have specifics on it but anyway, someday they'll be welcomed by the reality.

On the other hand, retiring is like having $1M-$100M and you're good until the remaining years of your life.

Retirement is something that you should not forget to prepare to and should also be in your top list.
We all want to retire happy, healthy and of course financially ready so if you still have time to prepare for that, better to do it now and look forward for that time while enjoying the present. Now, the only concern here is how to prepare for retirement? Crypto can be a good market to save some for your retirement but of course, you should not forget diversify and look for other options too, it can be good if you know how to invest properly and play long.
