- Financial constraints dominate retirement discussions despite clear public preference for earlier retirement.
- The retirement system focuses more on financing limits than on the actual desires of people for retirement timing.

- People often retire early due to fatigue, not financial incentives.
- Viewing retirement as a generative phase rather than an end can change how we approach it.

- Retirement discussions need to balance these factors rather than focusing solely on finances.
