The Wall Street Journal recently published an interesting article on retirement by David Ekerdt who studied retirement and now is IN retirement: https://www.wsj.com/articles/44-years-studying-retirement-11634913113?mod=Searchresults_pos1&page=1

The article is insightful (and behind the WSJ’s paywall unless you have a subscription or read it via your library) but what surprised me were the reactions it stirred on social media!

Some were supportive of working/saving/planning and then being flexible to enter and (hopefully) enjoy retirement. Others were very caustic!

I’m hoping to present some thoughtful opinions that may lead to some dialogue here – and hopefully it will be respectful and insightful – so that we can all learn from it!
