Munich The end of working life is one of the deepest turning points in life for most people. For many, the idea of ​​never having to work again sounds like heaven at first.

“It is not least this thought that ensures that many people continue to work after retirement,” says Uwe-Matthias Müller from the federal association Initiative 50plus. He divides the “non-retirees” into two groups: some have to keep working in order to be able to afford to live in old age. The others continue in order to have a meaningful occupation.
