Retirement is a financial state, not an age
When retirement is portrayed in popular culture, it's often a person golfing, sailing on a boat, or passing winter on the beach in Florida. There are many more generalities around retirement, but they all share the same thing: it's old people who don't work. In Canada, the normal retirement age is 65 and in the US, it's now 67. Those numbers are based on the age at which government programs start paying the retiree, whether it's Old Age Security and the Canadian Pension Plan/Québec Pension Plan 🇨🇦 or Social Security 🇺🇸. Because of those, that's the age at which people usually think of retiring.
