It's a ridiculous outlook, Tis. I had a very good friend who was well off enough to retire at 62, or even at 55. But in his mind, he just had to work until he was 65, because he felt he would be ripped off social security-wise.

He dropped dead, on the job, at 63 years old, with a ton of money in the bank. And he was single, too. No kids, just an ex-wife and a girlfriend. The money is still in probate as far as I know, and he's been dead for almost six years now.

Work all your life only to end up not enjoying the money?

F*** that!
