Answer 6

Answer 7

Also a state employee (PA). I can retire at 55 in my current class, if I promote that will only change to 58.  

Answer 8

The day I stop breathing

Answer 9

FI at 27/28 and my husband quit his job a few months ago. We probs won’t truly retire until our 40s.  

Answer 10

Today’s age.  

Answer 11

It “depends”. (So-to-speak)  I’m sick! Anyway, 65 or 70 depends upon certain financial circumstances.  

Answer 12

I have a great, low stress job that I really like and that provides really good lifetime benefits, a pension, etc. I plan to continue working until about 60-65, definitely no later than 65. Also, this work from home situation may be entirely transforming how my employer looks at WFH which, previously, was essentially a non starter. If I could do this permanently, that would make working toward 60-65 even more enticing.  

Answer 13

Retiring at 50. But I will continue to do passion projects that will bring in income but I will have the freedom to pick and choose what I want to do

Answer 14

It depends on when my current job no longer needs/wants my services. I'm guessing the next 10 years or so (I'm be 57)

Answer 15

57 and then find a new income stream I actually enjoy working for  

Answer 16

Depends on your definition of retire. In 8 years I want to quit my day job and just do our woodshop full time.  

Answer 17

60. then I'll probably be the crazy cat lady who volunteers at the shelter  

Answer 18

51. Im 61 now

Answer 19

62, I’m 46 right now. I am working on acquiring some rental properties to assist with the retirement income

Answer 20

65. call me old school. Not sure I will ever fully retire though.  

Answer 21

Probably never.  

Answer 22

Between 45-50.  

Answer 23

I would be thrilled to retire at 60 (I'm 45 now), but I will need to put quite a bit in my 401k to do that since I've gotten a late start

Answer 24

Why stop working? I like to work, I like my job, I like getting paid. Might switch up my hours at some point and take a job that requires me to travel less but I don’t think I’ll ever stop working.  

Comments

@iconostasis23 why stop working? To do things you enjoy more than working.

Answer 34

I'm 29 now. Hoping to retire traditional work by 55. It would be cool to begin working for myself by age 40 so that I can go part time for the last ten years of traditional work.
