| As you look ahead, do you now plan to retire later than you originally thought you would when you started your career? |

| I love my job intensely- teaching- and don't intend to give it up except if I am unable to perform to the level that is expected of me. Hence I want to continue teaching until I cannot stand any longer. | Anonymous |
| I planned to retire this year and ended up working another year. | Anonymous |
| Actually, I do not plan to retire...maybe; but will remain in advisory positions. | Anonymous |
| No way. In fact, I’m retiring earlier than I thought I would. | Anonymous |
| I always thought I would work for as long as I possibly could because I love to work. | Anonymous |
| I have begun to look at retirement as a 'dirty word.' Too many friends & colleagues of mine have made that decision too soon, and now regret same. I run a private school, and the past 10 years, I have seen a downward decline in enrollment as more charter schools open up, as well as parents who are still recovering from the 2008-09 recession. I am optimistic to believe that private choices will return as more parents realize their children are not getting the high-quality education they deserve. | Anonymous |
| The position is much more stressful now than when I started, even though I have more skills and experience than I had then. I had planned to work until I was 70, but I'm retiring after next year when I'm 67. If I could, I would retire this year! | Anonymous |

| I retired at age 65 as a school superintendent but continue to work as a university professor which I plan to continue until my brain gives up. | Anonymous |
| I never really thought about when I would retire even when I started and I have no immediate plans to retire. | Anonymous |
| I have 3- years in now and I’m not 55 yet, so I will be retiring in the next 7 years! | Anonymous |
| I'll be 58 and it'll be time to go | Anonymous |
| Retired at 56 with no insurance. Loved teaching but had to grow into mentoring. Still teach adjunct at 73. Still learning, growing. | Anonymous |
| College Tuition is outrageous and the Tax Cap is not keeping up with the increasing consumer prices | Anonymous |
