I could definitely see the retirement age moving up. The cashier in my cafeteria at the hospital will be 81 this year. More and more 'seasoned' people are working past 65. I don't know how long it would take retirement to get to 85, but people are living longer, and one of the many complaints I hear from my clients, who are mostly in their 80's, is that they're not doing anything. Many people retire and then go on to do something else, like a less stressful job or volunteerism. So, if you choose to stay active, why not work? Just a thought.
