I retired at 58, because I could. Not for any altruistic impulse of giving younger people an opportunity. I was tired of being worked like a rented mule.

This. My number is 57, ideally. My financial advisor looked at me in our last meeting and asked, "Why are you working so hard?" Great question, I thought.

The places I worked would give you a lecture on "at will employment" and toss anyone they cared to. Forget about seniority. They kept the ones they could beat the most work out of.

Also this. After a while you just don't want to live under the proverbial sword of Damocles every day.
