I'm 69, about to turn 70. I'm in a senior technical consulting role which often requires me to go on the tools. I work for a big, successful software firm that can afford to pay well. Most of my peers are 20+ years younger than me and quite smart, so I have to work hard to keep up. But I manage. Next year I will quit my job and 'retire'. In fact I'll be using my financial security to start up a SaaS. business. I have a bunch of ideas I've been wanting to work on. Working keeps me focused and connected. My rule is: stay interested, stay connected.

This is inspiring and what a great way to think about working & retirement!
