Retirement vs Longevity

A 2002 article by Sing Lin, Ph.D. titled "Optimum Strategies for Creativity and Longevity" (See: www.seeya-downtheroad.com/InformationPage/WhyRetireYoung.html) reported that people who retired later died at a younger age. It was based on data from a Boeing study.

In a later paper he reports that the old Boeing data (may be 20 yrs. old) was flawed and sights a 2001 Sandia Labs study which shows that there is no clear influence of age of retirement on life span for age of retirement below 65.
