I will keep on working but may not be doing exactly the same jobs. I want to spend more time traveling.

Debbie, I don't think Realtors ever retire! I mean, when was the last retirement party you went to for a colleague?

Do it until I phyiscally can't anymore, and then probably start to send out referrals. Pretty sure this is what I will be doing the rest of my career, good fit for me.

Age slows us down and eventually will determine our retirement whether we choose to or not.

Depends how much regulation is piled on top of what we already deal with by the time I'm at the age where I'd consider retirement. If the regulatory trend continues, I'll be out of this industry long before retirement age.
