7 out of 10 plan to work after 65,new survey finds.
Edited on Wed Aug-17-05 07:47 PM by Swede
Ahh those golden years

Nearly 7 in 10 workers plan to stay on the job past retirement age - including a growing number who say the decision will be driven by financial need, a new survey finds.
The survey, released today, echoes others in recent years showing more Americans plan to work longer. But the nationwide poll, by the John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers University, taps into increasing concerns among many workers - particularly Baby Boomers - about the need to supplement their income once they leave their primary job.

3. I'll probably die at my desk...
tomorrow.

I'm a writer so I guess I'd have to chop off my fingers to stop working.
