I enjoyed this short video and concur with your views, Ross I took voluntary redundancy in 1995 at age 59 At 87 I'm still thriving The past 28 years have been some of the most productive in my life: several books written, hundreds of essays, letters, mentoring people Also, around a thousand guest speaker appearances as both a storyteller and a teacher of that subject Around three months ago I started posting video on Retirement on YouTube and have now had over 32,000 hits and have well over 500 people subscribing to what I place I am now looking forward to presenting workshops to 'impending and recently retired' people That's why I look at videos like yours, Ross Oh, and yes, I live in Australia Happy to get in touch if you'd like to

This is how capitalists further exploit working class labour -- making people fear retirement and work until death
Comment from : Aliza Kassam

The weekend isn't a vacation, it's a time to catch up a few chores,and prepare for the coming week The older I get the more I resent working, can't wait to retire but can't afford to do so brOlder people have given the best years,of their lives to companies, institutions etc, but it's not enough We're now being told we can't be trusted to manage our lives without working This is wrong, this is false Your body wears out, you get ill, you don't have the energy you had in your 20s, 30s brKeeping Older people working is the mentality of those who don't want the bother of caring for the older generation thus denying young people coming into the job market, the opportunity to have well paid secure employment like we had when we entered the job market That's a selfish, short-sighted view of life Those in retirement or about to be retired have spent 40 years of their lives "giving back" Time for them to enjoy the fruits of their labours and younger people take up the baton of making a living

It depends on what you do with your time once retired I've watched close friends deteriorate when they stopped being active ( and I don't mean just working for money) I've watched some friends continue to go from strength to strength because they had interests and hobbies The most important muscles are the one between your ears Keep them active and see friends and you'll be fine

The stress and eventual burn out at the work place, can also cause the same mental declines are shown in the graph I don't need to be a scientist to prove it, I just lived before my retirement

I retire 3 days out of 7 and that's enough I enjoy working My work is mentally stimulating and rewarding

One of the best and most critical Ted Talks on retirement I’ve ever heard!
Comment from : Paul Segarra

I don't think "hundreds" of volunteers from a single region gives enough statistical significance / variability to test for all of the biases you mentioned you controlled forbrbrHave there been any follow-on / meta analyses on retirement that back up these findings?
Comment from : Leo Bekerman

As a new retire This talk was most enlightening Tks Ted Talks

nice lecture Ross!
Comment from : Qiao Jiang

this sounds like propaganda from the aristocracy to drive the plebs into an early grave retire as early as you can, not doing anything but what you want is awesome, i should know
