At what age do you plan to STOP. Plan to retire?

Bear with me and entertain with me on this one.  It is an honest question.  And since I'm asking for your honest answer, I will give you mine as well.

When I was in my teens I figured I'd be a millionaire by the time I was 21 and had contingency plans to guarantee it if necessary. (FAIL)

When I was in my 30's I determined my END date to be the age of 55.  Turn the key, end the J.O.B. and live with whatever I had accomplished, may it be rich or poor. (FAIL, didn't have a plan therefore I had planned to fail.)

When I was in my 40's I joked with all those around me that I will retire at 95 along with all of the rest of my colleagues, and everyone, literally EVERYONE agreed! (FAIL, not funny)

When I turned 50 the above turning 95 joke was not funny anymore.  I finally was going to have to grow up.

I am currently 54.  

I finally have a plan.  I just found it on the internet.  It is a 30 day plan.  What is yours?  Wish me the best :)
