Retirement is such a weird concept. I always find it strange that people in their 50's are thinking about retiring and thats like a real possibility for them. Im in my early 30's the only way I could possibly retire would be if I won the lottery or something. In the current interest rate environment it would take like 2+ million dollars saved to even have a chance at living off savings interest. The older generation had pensions to retire on, us younger folks are expected to work till we die. I don't really think of retirement except in that the idea has been retired for anyone born after 1970.
