I’ve had a job since I was 13 , and I’ve had a full time job since I was 18, including when I went to college. I’m not even 40 and I’ve already spent like 15 years working full time jobs, and my official ‘retirement’ age is 65, so I still have at least another 25 years of working full time before I can even begin to think of retirement.
