Legion,
Agree with most of it but #3 will not work. Sorry but after you pass 35 or so the body starts showing signs that its getting older and as CC said above we just cannot and do not want to work forever.
That said, as long as I can I will work because my work is fun and do not want to retire. Am lucky as I raced long distance bikes as a kid. The 200 mile races left me in fairly good condition as I got older, but you have to maintain it. There is nothing that you can do about arthritis and several other things that occur as you age naturally, so thats why we plan on retiring and enjoying the "fruits of life!"
Look ahead and start putting money into your 401k's and get some "cushion" started now. It adds up quickly and really makes the difference when you get a few years under your belt.
