Early Retirement Roadmap

The Biggest Retirement Mistake? Working Past 60


Listen Later

Working past 60 might seem smart, but it could be the biggest retirement mistake you make. In this video, we reveal the hidden costs of working past 60 — from lost health years to missed financial opportunities — and how to find your perfect retirement timing.

You’ll learn why the payoff for working longer can shrink after age 60, how taxes and Medicare premiums eat into those extra earnings, and why your healthiest years may be slipping away. Plus, I’ll share real-life examples, surprising data, and a practical framework for deciding when it’s truly time to retire.
