My dad had a long career with IBM. He retired from there with a pension in his mid-50s (about my age) but continued to work at various jobs into his mid-70s. I have passed his inflation-adjusted salary during his peak earning years and will continue to earn a high salary until I retire in a dozen years or so. He did better than me when we were younger, but I think I've passed him in recent years. Through our 50s and 60s I'll make considerably more and work in a better job. I plan to be fully retired before I hit 70, and he still worked part time through most of those years.
