If we think about physical jobs and people going through hardships to do them, like miners during the industrial revolution, then we will surely want to retire as soon as possible. But today there are many jobs that can be done with a computer. And if you have accumulated enough money to retire, you can also make a small investment to start a project that motivates you. That is why I say that I plan, one way or another, never to retire, at least as long as my cognitive abilities allow me to do so.
Now, there's no reason you can't be a consultant or take some other low-stress job if that's what you really want.
I know of a lot of famous people who take on high-paying jobs when they retire that basically have no stress attached at all. Ambassadorial roles and such. It's very easy on you, and allows you to still have a lot free time to go golfing or something like that.
