I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about the idea of retirement, and it has led me on a journey through the past, present and future of the concept. I refer to retirement as a concept because while it is deeply ingrained in our modern psyche, it is relatively new in terms of human history and has no guarantees surrounding it.
During my research, I uncovered some interesting facts and discovered some concerning trends that I think need to be realized and addressed by anyone thinking about and planning to retire.
