Retirement

I work with a lot of old people who are all on the brink of retirement. I've noticed that there are 3 different ways people look at retirement.
1. "I can't wait to get out of here." This is the mentality I think would best describe me in 30-70 years. It's the same feeling as graduation: I'm ready to be done with this; I want to move on.
2. "I won't be gone long." A lot of people at my job come back as contractors/consultants. They get to collect their big fat pension checks while simultaneously getting paid more money as a contractor. These are the people that aren't yet ready to give up on working.
3. "What am I gonna do with all this time?" These are the people I don't understand. They've been working for so long that they can't fathom not working. What a sad mindset. I don't envision myself having this same mindset. #business
