65 is supposed to be the age of retiremenr for a normal career

“Supposed to”

In Washington DC it’s 67. In Virginia it’s 61. In 1991 it was 57. It’s based on arbitrary convention, not for any medical reason.

Well, that should be standardized then, and 65 seems like a nice median

Based on what?

I’ve known high energy 80 year olds who were sharp as a tack and 50 year olds with early onset dementia or who were just plain nuts to begin with.

This isn’t about age.
