Well, I am not looking forward to my retirement yet because I’m to young to think about my retirement but I kind of got and idea of what I want to do when I retire. In my retirement I would want to spend most of the time with my family and also rest from working. I think it depends what kind of work are you doing. If you are doing hard work such as working in architectural moldings companies and all those types of hard work then I think you can retire between your 40s. If you’re working in those types of jobs like using the computers and all that then I think you can retire in your 50s or so. I think most of the people do miss working because it was like everyday getting up and going to work and from a day to another they don’t go anymore it’s a big change in their life. They might be careful in how much money they’re spending but they have their sons to support them now and help them out like parents help them all their life.

I am fifty five, and my vision of the retirenment problems, that are essential for the most people of my age and older, depends of my life circumstancies. I have to work about ten years before I may retire. My health is not so good now, and this make for me some additional problems to find job I can perform. The present situation is uncertain, and unpossible to say something about looking for my retirement in the future. What about time of retirement? It is obviously depends how advance is a society and how many years every statistic person may work without negative impact to his or her health. In Russia men who had not performed special kind or job retire at 60. In the USA people have to finish their job obligation in five years later. There is one very serious suggestion about time of retirement-phisical condition of the worker. Some are able work beyond this age, for other it is difficult to finish their time of the jos in time. Some are willing to work many more years, and their knoledge and experience are very rich and potential for their job position. Other may be exhausted because of hardship of life or job.

I am looking forward to my retirement even thought I am only 25. I think people need to start thinking early about the time when they retire because they need to prepare for it ahead of time. They need to save money for retirement and just think it through. I think when I retire I will be pretty much traveling and going places, also will be spending time with my grand kids if I will have any. I think the best age for retirement is 50 for men and women. At this age people have worked a lot, but still have time to enjoy their lives and do something for themselves. I think it really depends on a person whether he or she will miss work. Some people love working and they don’t want to retire ever. I know a lady that was 90 years old and still was running her business. So it really just depends on a certain person. People have to plan their retirement moneywise because they need to have enough for living. There are insurance companies who do that for you now, they calculate pretty much everything for you and they tell you how much you will need for certain needs. They help you save money and plan your retirement.

Every person thinks about their retirement. Since I am a stay at home mother, I do not have to think about retirement, but if I did have to think about retirement, then I think I would want to babysit my grandchildren in my retirement. The best age for retirement is sixty because that is when you start getting too old to do work. In this age you need to relax and see the world, take care of your grandchildren, and do everything that you couldn't do when you were working. For example, when my husband retires then we will go on a trip to other countries. I think that sometimes when people go into retirement, they miss their old jobs, but are better off without them, and whether or not retired people have to be careful how much they spend depends on how much they saved for themselves. The most important thing in this age is your health, so you have to put that first. I think that the whole point of retirement is that you can go and see the world, and spend a lot of time with your family before you die.

I am young yet to retire. If serious, I am thinking about it almost every day. In my country I was thinking about that very seriously. I have always worked. However, I lost my country, so I lost everything, and also my retirement. Here, in the USA, I have worked more as a student, and now I am working as temporary. I am looking for a job, and I worry toward my retirement. In my country, women go at age 55 and men at 60 on their retirement. I think it is really the best time to go on retirement. This is a very good age when you can enjoy spending time: traveling, gardening, reading books etc. I did not earn my retirement yet, so I will go on my retirement not so soon. I need to work hard for it. When I reach my retirement I think will take care of my family, traveling, gardening, reading books. I like gardening. I will plant vegetables, and fruits, and a lot of flowers. I think my life will be different. I won’t think about my job anymore, and I will spend more time with my family, and around my home. I think people won’t miss their work on their retirement if they have nice family, and their life won’t be boring. If they are alone, better to work. People always need to be careful about spending their money. However, we need to think about our retirement now when we not old yet that to have enough money on retirement’s life.

Does retirement important for us? Yes it does, but we aren’t look forward to our retirement. This is a big mistake in our life. If we don’t think about our future, we will have a lot of problem. For example, somebody must care about us. I like retirement system in the US, because people can get money after retirement in any country where they live. In my native country we don’t have this, for example, my grandmother immigrated to the US. So, she didn’t get any money from her native country. Furthermore, the US people who live in other country, have it. I think, when I will be retirement, I will help for my grandchildren. I’m going to do this because my grandmother helped me any time, and with many situations in my life. In addition, she loved me so much. The best time for retirement is fifty years for women, and fifty five for men. It’s my opinion, because after retirement people must have their own life. Old people must think about their money carefully, because to get money is hard, but spend it, is so easy. For example, I so many old people who play at casino, they were not serious about their money. I think every of them have children, or grandchildren, they must help them. In other hands, they must not waste their money. In conclusion, retirement is an important thing that people must think about it now. If we won’t do this, in the future we will get many life problems.

I'm not looking forward to retire because I'm not so old and plus I don't even have a job to retire from.Besides,the only thing I do is take care of my children and my children aren't old enough to go and live their own life,but when they are then I might retire from taking care of them.Although,I might take care of their children for them.From my opinion,I think the best age for retirement is between sixty and seventy years of age.I think people should retire in this age because,they aren't strong enough to lift things or to do any other hard labor.Also,I think that people who retire really do miss working because,when they have a job and are still working then they aren't called old by other people.In addition,those people who are retired they are bored at home because,probably most of their children are married and live far away from them,but when they have a job they communicate with other people at work and they don't feel so lonely or bored any more.I don't think retired people need to watch how much money they spend unless the economy is really bad then they will have to watch how much money they have to spend.I think that they don't need to watch how much money they spend because they will still get some money the next month and they don't have anymore children to feed and take care of.The only time they do have to watch how much money they spend when the economy is really bad because,the government will not have enough money to give them because they will need a lot of money to make the economy better.In conclusion,people who retire have to be pretty old to retire from a job,also they do feel lonely and don't have to watch how much money they spend.

Retirement is sound good to me when ever I thought about it.Most people who planned to retire the last 40 years ,40% of them lost their retirment monery to stock market. It is hard to go back to work in this time and age. If some one who wants to retire the next 20-30 years,save a $100.00 a month speciall saving account.Do not invest your money let just sit in your saving account and you will thank me after 30 year. Good luck to every one.

No, I am not waiting to be retiring, I am still young, but I think about it. It is very important to get ready for it, during living time, when you can still work. But, I don’t think that my best lifetime will be when I am going to retire. I know a lot of people, that retired and after 1or 2 year(s) they died. To retire and stay home is a really boring life. It’s better to be healthy and work, to be helpful to other people.

Human must have retirement because retirement is very important in life. I am not looking forward for retirement because I am still young, but I am saving money for my retirement. In my opinion, human have to retire with many reasons and the best age to retire is 65. I think that’s age need to rest and enjoy life because people worked hard before. Before retirement people have a lot of responsibilities such as buy house, take care of kids, pay bills. They also save money for retirement. First time when people start to retire, they are still miss working but not too much. They take their time to go vacation or do something they like. For example, my grandmother just retired. She usually goes to vacation and visits her friends. She enjoys to take care of her garden. She’s also careful about her money. I think if retirement without money. That’s not interesting anymore. Retirement is an important part in life and human have retirement.

I think retirement is a part of life that we all look forward to. I think that retirement is something that every person who works hard should be entitled to. When I retire I hope to have worked hard my whole life. I am definitely looking forward to retirement. I plan to retire back to Iran to be closer to my family. I also plan to travel, and take up new hobbies like reading. I hope to also spend time with my grandchildren (if I have any by that time). I think that 60 is the best age a person can retire, because by that time you are too old for work, but young enough to things like travel and new hobbies. In my opinion whether people miss working when they retire depends on their age of retirement. If someone retires at age 50 then they will probably miss working because they still have enough energy to work. People in retirement usually rely on money that is paid to them by the companies that they used to work for. In the U.S. people also get Social Security benefits so if someone retired from a company they would actually have two incomes. However, I think everyone should be careful with their money and how they spend it, even people who retire.

Even though, I am still young. I am still looking forward to retirement. Everyone thinks that when you retire, you are old. That is not true. You can retire when you are 65 now and that is still very young. When I retire, I want to travel. I want to go home to visit my country and my family. I am also looking forward to not working. I plan on working hard before I retire. So when I retire I have a lot of money. I don’t think anyone will miss working because working is hard work. I can always go back to work if I miss working or if I need more money. I don’t think I will have any problem with money because I am good at saving. I am looking forward to retire because I can do whatever I want to do.

I am not looking for retirement I am still young. Even I don’t think about retirement. I think it is not important now to worry about it because we don’t know what will happen for the future. However, as human being, it is good always to be optimistic. My prediction about retirement, maybe I will retire at 65 and God willing, I hope I will have my own business ,of course I will have young kids by then . I will make investment in my country and help poor people. One thing that is very important at the old age is to be happy, So my wife and I will travel to very interesting places part of the world .By the time I will retire I don’t think so to have money problem I will have more than enough but that is good, knowing the way how you spend the money.☺ In my opinion people have to be careful how much money they are spending. Money has very important role in life specially at the old age.

“I had been saving money for my retirement since I graduated from college. I have a beautiful country side house near the lake where I go fishing with my grandkids. My wife and I like to travel and we had visited many countries all over the world since I was retired. I am interested in oil painting and have enough time to do what I like. I am in my sixties and happily retired.” This is exactly how I see my retirement age. Is it sound like a good plan for you? Every responsible adult should think about their old age. Unfortunately many young people do not care about it and I am one of them. This is a big mistake that we can regret in the future. I work at a satellite company that covers many counties around Sacramento. I have been seen a lot of people lately and can tell the difference. People who were thinking about retirement for many years make a good elderly living. But those, who didn’t care about it, trying to survive and still have to work hard at their seventies. I think many old people have a desire and opportunity to work after sixty and should not be forced to retire by the government.

I will choose when i will retire depend on how much I made from the job. If I made lots of money, I will probably retire in an earlier age. If the salary from the job didn't satisfy me, I will most likely keep working. First of all, I can get more money after I retired if I work longer. This amount of money can serves my family and I a better life. On the other side, if i made a lot of money throughout my career, I won't need too much of the retired payment. I assume the best age for retirement is around 65-75.

Many people think retirement is a very exciting thing to look forward to, but for me it’s nothing really interesting that makes me happy. What retirement reminds me of is getting old. Usually people who retire are around age 50 or 60. For me it’s better to stay young and work, then to retire. But all people will get old someday and will need to retire. So when that time comes I will look forward thoughts it. I think the best age to retire is around 50 years old. The reason is because you can still travel and have fun. Many people are still in good shape able to have a lot of fun from the things they do. I think it’s the fun part about retirement, but this does happen all the time. Some people stay home and sometimes retirement gets old for them and they want to go back to work. That’s why many millionaires are still working because they like it and they don’t want to stay home and sleep. Many people who retire have millions and don’t really need to be careful with how much money they spend. But for others its different. Some people plan how much they are going to spend a week and they have to be cautions to fallow that plan. I think retirement is a good thing, but I don’t really want to think about it because its makes me feel old.

Nowadays I'm not looking farward my retirement maybe because I'm young and have a small children. But this time is not far away from now. Our life goes so fast and we're suppoused to think about this time carefully. What I know exactly, it's that I will spend a lot of time with my grandkids. I'll spend more time to help my children and grandkids. In my opinion the best age for retiremend is around 60-65. Of course people in that age have a big experience and great knowledge in different spheres. I think, people will miss their jobs because they have worked so many years. It was a part of their life. But this time for retired people is a time to have a rest and time to take care of themselves. In my native country retired people very often work during thier retirement. Of cource it is hard time, but they don't have a choice because they don't have enough money for life. The goverment in my native country don't worry enough about retired people. Some of them don't get money every month. But the worst time for them is the cold and long winter days.

I don't really think about my retirement. I am only 19 years old, so I feel like my whole life is ahead of me. I have time to go to college and get a job, establish my career, buy many cars, start a family and enjoy life. I like working so I am not sure if I will want to retire. But I think that a good age to retire is after 60. That's when people start to get old and may be unable to work. I guess that's when you can think about traveling the world, have a good time with your kids and grandchildren, and spend your time driving and fixing cool cars. When I retire, I want to have plenty of money so that I don't really have to worry about spending them. I will have a lot of time to maybe go spread the Word of God to people in places far away, where people have never heard about the Lord. Of course I will miss working, but it doesn't mean that I am not going to do things around the house and help out in other places. Nevertheless, I am still young and I have got to live my life still.

In my opinion, the best age to retire is sixty. At that age I hope to be healthy enough to travel and see the world. Also, I can enjoy playing with my grand children, smoke cigars, and relax. Once I retire I would miss working but I would also enjoy all the free time. Retiree’s adapt to their new life style of “No work, all play.” Eventually, retiree’s change their spending habits. Some retiree’s have lots of money saved which they spend lavishly on themselves or their families. While others, don’t have savings and have to depend on the government for aid.

I am 32 years old and I rarely think about my retirement. I think about now because from now will be build my future with great successful retirement. In my opinion, retirement is an excellent time to new felling of retirement age, and explore new avenues in your life. Behind you were living interesting life with many experience, that brought in life wisdom and knowledge, and you will do what you want. Until that time I will know English, and have my own business. I want to help people to realize how wonderful life is, for that I want to have training company to improve people with everything. I plane to make money to spend them for traveling because I would like to discovery new places, that brings me a lot of fun and new ideas. Also it will give me develop my intellect, form my views and character, my attitudes to life and to other people. I hope in future I can become as a good specialist and can help a lot of people.

I wished, I could retire today but unfortunately I cannot afford. I plan to retire at 55. It will be really nice if this happens. I like to retire earlier and I am sure I will not get bored because finally I will have time for hobbies and hopefully I will have money so I can travel. I think, people should retire not later then 60. I am sure I will not miss my work. I will find other different way to keep me busy. I am planning to have a nonprofit organization and help orphans in my country. This will keep me really busy. Also, I want to learn to play guitar and a new language, maybe Italian since this is my favorite country.
