WORKING BEYOND 65




This is a common dilemma with all human beings, When not to work?
This depends on attitude.
Majority want to go on earning with out realizing that sudden death kills 1.5 lakhs of people a year in the world.Why for one should work?If he or she has zero bank balance, no source of income from property or with out work the house will not run.In some situations the children do not want to help the father nor the father d wants to beg to his children.
Some say why are you wasting your talent staying at home?Where was the talent for last 65 or more years?
With so much of problems like transport,accidents, high hospital bills,rise in price of common commodities some people justify in working even up to the age of80 just to show off that he is fit and can work.With so much of unemployment in the country is it justified to work beyond65 years of age?
Those unfortunate people who do not have any hobbies nor they love any one except self get bored at home and go out with running shoes to the office from 9to5 six days a week.They do not have time to talk to self nor they have the habit of reading books or watching national geography or cricket or football match but majority show off that they are expert in cricket(all Indians are expert in cricket from Shopkeepers to bus drivers).
People spend hours talking with their children over internet(Connection money donated by son or daughter at times son in law)may twice a day to much annoyance of the son or his wife.
Coming to the topic of working beyond 65 is like a double edged sword.If you work, you get exhausted and die early or if you do not work people make a laughing stock of you.
Those who have liability and no work will make them sick it's their choice whether to work or not.
But if some one is not enjoying his or her job or getting snubbed by the authority still then wants to work then unless there is compulsion one should think twice before continuing such jobs.If you are not contributing to the organization then one should not take salary in such case.
To conclude writers, singers,artists,creative people, those contribute to society are the person who should continue as long as they can, but not physically sick doctors or engineers or teachers, or bus drivers or hugged looking hero should try to contribute from their savings(if they have) to the needy ones and stop working at others cost..
No age is a bar for a new hobby.
