Why You Should Never Retire

Retirement doesn't necessarily mean passing time meaninglessly; it can also mean getting to choose the most meaningful ways to utilise one's time.

(compare also the independence from economic interests espoused by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humboldtian_model_of_higher_ed... to the dependence upon economic interests espoused by TFA)

A large fraction of Economist readers may have fulfilling white-collar jobs, but billions of people do not, and for them working until they die is less appealing.

LOL retire, as if it were still a choice for the 99%.
