With a 213% increase in boomers leaving the work force, has the mass exodus just begun? The pandemic may have triggered a major rethinking about working a few more years. My suspicion is we’re going to see more and more people retiring in ever greater numbers.

Over the past year, there’s been a 213% increase in retirements! This massive increase perplexes me why so many boomers are choosing to retire now. Is this pandemic related or does this reflect a growing exodus?

With 10,000 Americans turning 65 years of age each day, one might expect a somewhat regular trend. According to the PEW Research Center, on average (since 2011) around 2 million people retire each year.

In 2020, they reported 3.2 million, a dramatic increase from 1.5 million in 2019 (213%).

The reasons baby boomers are retiring more than ever before includes:

1. Job dissatisfaction due to boring repetitive work
2. Struggling with a changing work environment
3. Ageism and job loss
4. Enjoying life
5. Health issues
6. Desire to be their own boss

1. Job Dissatisfaction Due to Boring Repetitive Work

One of the underlying reasons baby boomers are deciding to retire more than ever before is a lack of job satisfaction. In fact, an estimated 85% of workers dislike their jobs. After a lifetime of drudgery in an unfulfilling job, who isn’t ready to leave?
In short, these folks are ready to retire or at least move on to something more interesting and enjoyable. Some of the factors contributing to this include:

• Every day feels the same with repetitive unchallenging tasks. You could almost do the job in their sleep.
• Lack of career advancement opportunities. This may be further aggravated with no salary increases or bonuses.
• Reporting to a younger boss who neither understands nor values your contributions.
• Management interference filled with bureaucracy.

For those with an interesting and fulfilling career, they might prefer working a few more years. Yet, the overwhelming majority dream of the day they can leave the rat race.

Once reaching the magical age of 62, they’re eligible for Social Security and they vanish from the workforce. Our post, what age to retire identifies 62 as, by far, the most common age.

What will be your legacy is a question most people never think about, at least until their final days. At that stage, they might be regretful and wish they’d done things differently.

For the most part, I believe everyone wants to be remembered as a good person who made a difference.

Your legacy is largely determined by how purposefully you lived and the impact you made on others. Three aspects to consider include your material possessions, family and the difference you made in the world.

The actions you take in your life show what’s important to you. How these influence others can have a lasting impression that exists long after you’re gone.

It consists of helping others as well as doing things for yourself that have positive effects on people or society.

After you’re no longer here, you don’t want to just fade away. It sounds silly to put it that way because why should you care? However, most people do want to be thought of in a positive light. Remember no one will tell your story if you don’t.

Living Purposefully

Undoubtedly, you’ve heard the old saying that no one regrets not spending more time at work.

Guess what, the most common regret is living an uninspiring existence! In effect, conforming to social expectations and doing what others think you should. Some influences can include:

• Your parents wanted you to pursue a certain profession. While the money was good, it was never your true calling.
• Marrying too young to a person who wasn’t your soul-mate. Then came the children and feeling trapping in an unfulfilling marriage.
• Risk adverse and never doing anything too wild or crazy. Like backpacking through Europe or hiking the Inca trail.
• Filling each day with meaningless activities to pass the time.

What’s important to you? In our post Finding Meaning in Life, we discuss the importance of living purposefully. Once we’re old and infirm, the greatest regret is often missing out because we listened to everyone else instead of ourselves.

Finding meaning and purpose requires intent to understand ourselves and what’s important. There’ll be obstacles and challenges to discovering your passion. Once found, it’ll be worthy of your time and others will share in the journey.

Finding meaning in life after 65 is really about living purposefully. This requires understanding what’s important and striving to always do your best. When your days are filled with meaningful and fulfilling activities, you’re in control of your long-term happiness.

Retirement is when you stop living for work and begin working at living. From my perspective, these should be the best years of our lives.

The challenge is most of us have never really thought about things like living purposefully. Throughout our working years, we were too busy raising children, earning a pay check and all the daily distractions.

Everything changes in retirement. The pace slows and alarm clocks are a thing of the past. After a while, the days can begin to blur and run together. Boredom creeps in and you might feel like you’re stagnating.

We need a sense of purpose to keep us growing and moving forward.

The Meaning of Purpose

Achieving a sense of purpose helps you understand the meaning of life and what’s most important to you. When you live purposefully, each day counts as you grow as a person and experience fulfillment.

A simpler way of stating it, it’s the reason you get out of bed.
What do you look forward to each day?

What Influences Your Sense of Purpose?

According to Psychreg, there are four key factors influencing meaning and purpose in life. These are:

• Physical and mental well-being.
• Belonging and recognition or being part of something larger than yourself.
• The things we do that make us feel good such as spending time with loved ones and pursuing our interests.
• Spiritual connections such as our place in the world.

When these are in balance, meaning and purpose begin to fall in place.

Benefits of Finding Meaning in Life After 65

As sad as it sounds, most of us need a reason to get off our butts. While it’s great to slow down and enjoy life, after awhile, it’s tough to get moving again.

There’s an eerie parallel with Newton’s First Law of Motion. Basically, a body at rest will remain at rest unless force is applied....

Did you know every day about 10,000 Americans turn 65 and are faced with enrolling into a program that can best be described as an unnecessarily complex range of options?

To address widespread confusion, our guide provides information on Medicare simplified enrollment.

According to Fidelity, as of 2019 the average 65-year-old American couple can expect to pay $285,000 throughout their retired years. Being an average, many retirees will spend considerably more without adequate health insurance.

And, this doesn’t include long-term care facilities, if required.

Besides being downright complicated, somehow, we need to gaze into a crystal ball and foresee future medical needs. An informed choice not only saves you money, it could very well extend your life.

Common Medicare Enrollment Mistakes

This might be one of the most important decisions that could haunt you for years to come. Delaying or making the wrong choices could cost you thousands of dollars or more. Further, it may impact your quality of care for the rest of your life.

Right off the bat, let’s get to the common mistakes on Medicare enrollment.

1. Missing the Initial Enrollment Period

You become eligible for Medicare upon your 65th birthday. Your initial enrollment period is seven months long. This includes the three months prior to your birthday, your birth month, and three months after.

If you miss this period, you may incur late enrollment penalties.

If you don’t register for Part B (medical insurance), the late enrollment charge is an increase of 10% in the monthly premium for each 12-month period delayed. This would remain for the rest of your life!

The exception to this is when you (or your spouse) are still working and covered under a group health plan through an employer. Under these situations, you may be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period (SEP).

2. Automatic Enrollment Without Fully Reviewing Your Options

You’ll be automatically enrolled into “Original Medicare” if you’re receiving Social Security benefits. This includes Part A (hospital insurance) and Part B (medical insurance). Unfortunately, this coverage only includes basic expenses.

There are many additional facets of health care expenses that should be considered. For instance, dental, vision and co-pays are not covered.

Once the initial enrollment period is over, adding additional insurance often results in penalties and much higher costs.

3. Opting Out of a Prescription Drug Plan

You might be as “healthy as a horse” and decide this is an unnecessary expense. The problem is....
