MATURITY WORKS! And Not For Peanuts

[Crewleader]

By Frank Kaiser


We golf. We dance. We travel exotic lands.

Retirement is just one big, happy vacation, where the air is sweet, the water fresh, and the money and sunset everlasting.

That's the image marketers love to sell.

And you can bet your Rudy Vallee megaphone that you'll never see an ad for Lipitor, AARP, or a retirement community picturing a grim, real-life, moth-eaten, desk-bound working coot. Yet, millions of us past the age of 65 trudge off to work daily.

Some, like my friend, Larry, wouldn't have it any other way. "What else am I going to do?" he asks. Indeed, he has a secure position in a job he loves. He'll probably be there till he croaks.

2. Don't tell Obama he'll start on us seniors next

Gays, baby boomers, are we really next.

3. I'm still working full time at 68.

I'm also collecting social security, but I couldn't afford to live on just that. But even if I did retire, I'd be bored to tears.
