Take it for what it's worth...

While the study has it flaws, the underlying message that there is more to life than working is very important.

If going to work is a chore, it is time for a change.

For me, I could have retired earlier. Why did I wait?

Several reasons (not all good):
1) I actually enjoy my job and, until recently, it has been big fun to go to work;
2) I wanted to be eligible for Medicare as private insure is expensive;
3) My son has a disability, and my company insurance is much easier to deal with than the disability folks;
4) My daughter, who just turned 26 has been on my insurance until the end of this month.

If you can do it, do it. enjoy your self and do good things.
