For me, I think the answer is very different depending on whether you've got a job with set hours and location (which we should all get away from) or whether you're more flexible and maybe running your own business.

I've run my own businesses since leaving school and although I expect to slow down as I get older, I don't ever want to retire. I just want my role to evolve and spend more of my work time doing the (work related) things I enjoy most. I've always thought that business owners who look forward to retirement need a new business.
