I would like to work a good while after I "get back into it". I am returning to nursing at the age of 54. Can I expect to work 15-20 years? How long are yall planning to work? I would love to hear from you older guys and gals.

I think I won't be able to retire until I am AT LEAST 150 years old.

No seriously, though...I tend to identify myself by my profession, so I believe that I shall be quite lost when I retire. At 150 years old.

47!! Yeah, baby! Our goal is to retire in 10 years. We actually just met with our financial advisor, who said we have a good, realistic plan.
