Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Seems an odd poll, why would anyone choose other than option A - everything? .
Exactly. I suspect that many of us stuck in OMY syndrome is because we don't have the pension. Its our fear or running out of money in old age that keeps us working. A pension goes a long way towards mitigating this risk (as does waiting to age 70 to take SSI as a couple of people have mentioned).
Neither DH or I have a pension, which is why I postponed my ER by 2 years.
As REWahoo mentioned, at some point I might consider a SPIA if it looks like I am likely to run out of funds to maintain a "minimal" lifestyle into old age. That decision is probably 20 to 25 years away.
