When do you think you'll be able to retire from paid work?

The day I reach retirement age, not sure when that is exactly as thought I had to go to 67 but hearing now that last year you can go at 66 plus any month your birthday falls in after April 2026
 
Will probably work until I die or until my body physically allows me to.

Self employed tradesman with zero benefits and I don’t intend to pay into a pension fund just to keel over a year or 2 after retirement like too many people I know have.

Might live to regret it later down the line, but them’s the breaks.

This is why I'm a stinge bag with my pension at work. I know we need them, but the quality of life I'll have by the time I get it will be rubbish. I'll just need enough for the heating and a microwave meal.
 
Who can tell these days. The way its going im not sure if I can imagine being fully retired but with any luck might get to a stage where able to work part time consulting or lecturing/training.

The world and/or my circumstances may change significantly over the next 25 years.
