What Retirement? People Over 65 Are Launching Encore Careers and Finding Fulfillment Like Never Before,” by Alix Langone, CNN Money

“A growing number of older Americans are challenging the idea of traditional retirement, as more retirees decide they want to keep working or pursue passions after leaving the rat race behind: the number of Americans age 65 and over who continue to work has doubled since 1985, according to a study by United Income. Some people simply need to keep a paycheck coming in to cover the bills, but many want some combination of rewarding work on their own terms and additional financial security. If this sounds like you, there are pros and cons to consider when pivoting to a second — or third or fourth — act later in life.”

More people with more income to afford LTCI premiums and more principal to protect.
