The Economist exhorts us to keep on working because it's good for the world's economy. The magazine tells us the ageing population will cause a world economic slowdown. They laud Warren Buffet, who is 83, still working, as a good example. This article also claims that educated agers make better salaries, and that there is a growing divide between the educated and the blue collar worker. Further, we are living longer and this divide puts a huge strain on government because seniors vote. I suppose most of us who are FIRED would not be praised by this magazine. I know I could easily be identified as a deadbeat granddad. Anyway, here's a link, if interested.
