The going to something is the more redeeming approach. So the whole idea of what we are going to do when we retire is being rethought. I remember reading a couple of years ago when Billy Graham s son stepped in as Chief Executive Officer of their organization. He said, You know, I have read the Bible through several times and God never talks about retiring. He is right.
Retirement is a new phenomenon.
It has only been around one generation. That was the last generation. It appeared for the first time in history just before World War II and now is going away again. Along with defined benefits, protected jobs and so on, retirement was a clock work type thing. But it going away again.
