Default Retire, its just a word

That is what I am coming to think of the word now. I can not think of anyone that has actually retired other than for the night when they go to sleep in the past 20 years. I doubt I will have the chance, I just do not see why we still hope for it, its almost like a dream.

I think it is just a dream it's certainly not something I count on. You might get to retire if you win the lottery or something but that's probably about it!

I know one man who is retired. He was a professor at a college and retired at 71. I know people in their 60s who can not retire just yet and one woman who is 84 and still has not retired. I do want to retire one day!
