The number of Americans aged 65 and over who continue working has quadrupled since the 1980s. Today, nearly 20% are employed, reflecting a significant shift.
Cavedon emphasizes the importance of camaraderie in the workplace, stating that many older Americans work not just for money, but for connection and mental engagement.
Pew Research indicates that around 11 million Americans aged 65 or older are currently employed, accounting for 7% of all wages and salaries in the U.S.
