I just had the realization that, regardless of financial need, I am going to be working until I'm 70.

This is based on my observation of dozens of people I have met who have won big in the startup lottery. None of them needs the money, but all of them are still working.

So, assuming that I have 40 more years of work ahead of me, I've come to the exact opposite conclusion as the author of the article: I need to take very good care of my hands, arms, eyes, brain and always be learning.
