The average age of life expectancy has through the ages been going up from 40, 50, 60 till the actual average of 76 years. So, we as humans seem to be getting better at living longer. Agreed, we have also advanced in medical terms, quality of life, etc. The age issue is not only about pension plans and setting up limits to retirement. It has also been adjusted to the individual necessities’, financial requirements, etc. At what age do we establish that limit if, we are compliant with all the requirements? Difficult answer and one which will bring much controversy!!!!
