I don't plan to work for too long either. I've been planning to start a business here in the metro. I have a small business in the province but it's not really booming anymore. Although starting a business here isn't that easy. It requires a lot of work and preparation.

I'll have to work until I can afford not too, I think it's a bad thing in life when you have to work more and pay more than people previously did. The government should seek alternative ways of saving money, as it's hard to know what pension schemes to trust. By time I'm near to retiring it will probably increase to 70 or something.

I have worked for 45 years so far. I am counting my first job in high school as a clerk. I worked steadily all that time except a couple of lay offs for a while. I lived in various states and worked various jobs, different fields, but all in business management. I have worked at home for the past 5 years. Now, lo and behold, I will be able to draw retirement next year. Unbelievable how time passes.

I work not to live but to fulfill obligations and responsibilities and duties. I work to be human and part of a society. But I live not by working but by being me and enjoy the bounty of God's love and care!

I plan to work as long as I enjoy doing what I do.The time I dont like working may be for two months in line,I will considering quitting and do something else I do.This is because sometimes I tend to get carried away and say " Iam going to quit tomorrow",but a few breaths later,I realize that its not the work that iam hating but certain other nonrelated things.Finally ,I would like to say that I would work as along as I enjoy.

I don't have a knack for business. But it has crossed my mind. Maybe I'll give it a try but not now. For now, I'm happy working and I plan to do it for as long as I can coz I can't imagine myself not being busy.
