Due to

this

phenomenon, people are arguing whether the retirement

While

some elderly might appear to be in their prime condition, we can not resist that the body is ageing and has a totally different endurance than when they were younger. The current healthcare might solve complex issues.

Additionally

, most office workers are required to sit for a long time and commute every day.

For example

, in Japan, folk spend more than 9 hours daily going to the office, doing their jobs, and going home. The hours can be longer when they do overwork.

Therefore

, entirely stopping

is not an easy milestone to conquer.

While

one's physical condition is essential to think of, some find it hard to accept the fact that they are no longer productive and earning money. The mental readiness is another factor to talk about. Not everyone feels at peace to put an end to their income source, they would rather have something to do every day.

Furthermore

although
