There is an infinite number of things more worthwhile then simply managing ones money. I tend to think the preoccupation with retirement in this country is a negative development. Everyone can find an example of a person who retires from their "job" who is very active and who is involved on a daily basis with doing this or that, but for the most part retirement means people are removed from life. I see lots of examples where people retire and then their health deteriorates, both mental and physical. You can only play so many rounds of golf. BTW what a lot of people call retirement is simply them quitting work for someone else and then working for themselves in some other endeavor. I've always worked for myself, so you could say I retired before I started working if I used their definition of "retirement". Whereas in reality I work all the time, far more then I would if I had a job working for someone else.
