I found this thread:
https://talkelections.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=547942.msg9057952

So, atlasians are very very young for the most part.
Some of you may not have even started to work, so many of you may not have any idea.
A few of you may have already retired.

No idea.

If I stay the course, 64. But I'm not sure I'm going to last so long. Could take a new career path and need to build up again...or I could get bored and keep going until infirm.

And of course, death is inevitable, and when is a mystery. Could not make it to that point too.

I'm already in my late sixties but don't plan to retire until sometime after I'm 70.  I could do so comfortably now, but I like my job and my colleagues, so I'm in no rush to retire.

My "official retirement date" according to pension papers is November 1, 2058, three weeks after my 67th birthday.

Expecting my final day of work to be in my later 60’s. Barring that I retire early or pass away before the expecting date.

Seventy seems to be the optimum age for retirement as far as Social Security is concerned (of course I have other assets like my pension and retirement investment accounts to supplement that), so that's what I will be aiming at.

I will never retire. I have three work streams that can be done well into my eighties.

I'll be eligible for my full pension somewhere between ages 57 and 59, assuming I don't go back to the private sector.  I'd probably want to keep working until 68-70, though.

I retired from full-time work at 57. I've continued various levels of part-time work now past my 66th birthday. I could live on my retirement income, but as long as there is a market for my skills part-time, I see no reason to do no paid work at all.

I retired about about age 60 because I could afford it.

If I'm lucky, 67. If not, I'll probably work as a Walmart greeter.
