The issue of whether employees should be required to retire at the age of 65 is still controversial. In my view, people should have the right to choose to work even they are over the age of 65.

There are some people who are passionate about their jobs. For these people, working is not only a way to earn money but also provides them with a lot of satisfaction.

In addition, some people still need money to support their family even after the age of 65. If they are forced to retire, they will lose their income and will not be able to share the financial burden of their family. The consequence can be serious. I know a person who was still working at the age of 64, because his son was unable to work due to his disability. After he was forced to retire at the age of 65, his family has really a hard time. In order to have enough money to pay bills, his daughter-in-law had to work fifty hours per week.
