    I really do believe that if you keep your mind active you are less at risk of becoming that way. Or, at least you will stave it off.

    Yeah, there's a lot to be said for neuroplasticity. Turning into a couch potato late in life is probably not good for the brain...

    It's interesting you say that. My dad retired at like 66 or something and now he's too old to actually do the things he wanted to do throughout his life. Traveling is physically tough for him.

    My wife and I aren't rich by any stretch but we do have a plan to retire around 50, at which point we can live modestly until the end. But we'll be able to travel and see the world and do things we want to do without being too extravagant.

    I'll probably end up bored and find something to do. My dad says that he has no problem not working at this point, he says it feels very natural haha.
