Jim is probably the oldest baby boomer and he is only 55, hardly ready to retire.

Another problem with the concept in #61 (that retirement is obsolete) is that people are pushed to retire to make room for new generations. "Old" people have more health problems, have a smaller potential further service life than young workers, generally have higher pay that new employees, may not be up on the latest gadgets, may be harder to retrain on the average, and are, well, just LOOK OLD. Nasty.....

haha. Actually, I think there is a lot of wasted human capital that occurs because of our culture's views on hiring older people.
