These days 62 % of boomers between the ages of 65 and 69 are working full-time or plan to work at least part-time in their retirement. Who would have thought that we would be using work and retirement in the same breath and sentence? However, today it is common to hear people talk about including work in their retirement plans because they either love what they do, need the money, want to stay connected, or some combination of those reasons. At this life stage, it is almost a requirement that you know and understand your relationship to meaningful work or you will not be satisfied with your retirement lifestyle.
Do you plan to include work in your retirement plans? If so, take a moment to define meaningful work for you.
