I think it's sign of the times. Four years ago, the majority would retire around 55-60. Now it's between 60-70. Maybe they realize the retirement nests have lost a few golden eggs, so they postpone retirement plans. Why do you suppose they have the grouping that way? Probably the 65-66 has quite a high percentage. The "Never" at 6.5% is a bit surprising. I heard the government may legislate minimum age for SS benefits by 6 months to a year, to help SS funds from going bankrupt too soon.
