To retire or not to retire...That is the question!

The article showed many options an older adult has when they decide to leave the workplace all together or to partially leave the workplace. It was great to see that so many people can choose one of these six options and usually be satisfied with their life. It makes sense that the people who returned to work because of financial reasons would be less satisfied because they are basically forced to keep working to keep living. An older adult who decides to volunteer or do leisure activity's will untimely be more satisfied. I think that older adults should be able to relax when they retire and not have to be forced back to work in order to keep surviving. They worked all their lives and made money and it seems unfair that they would have to keep working. If they want to work to feel like they are still a productive member of society then that is fine. That is a personal choice though. While everyone is different and all feel differently about what they do after they retire we should look at those who have to keep working and see why they have to do that. If there is some way that we can help out an older adult so they can at least have a semi-leisurely retirement I think many people would benefit.
