                 A
            Poll: 1 in 4 don’t plan to retire despite realities of aging



            By ANDREW SOERGEL
            For The Associated Press
            CHICAGO  (AP)  —  Nearly
            one-quarter  of  Americans
            say they never plan to re-
            tire,  according  to  a  poll
            that  suggests  a  discon-
            nection between individu-
            als’  retirement  plans  and
            the realities of aging in the
            workforce.
            Experts  say  illness,  injury,
            layoffs  and  caregiving  re-
            sponsibilities  often  force
            older workers to leave their
            jobs  sooner  than  they’d
            like.
            According  to  the  poll
            from The Associated Press-
            NORC  Center  for  Public
            Affairs  Research,  23%  of
            workers, including nearly 2
            in 10 of those over 50, don’t
            expect  to  stop  working.
            Roughly  another  quarter
            of  Americans  say  they  will
            continue  working  beyond
            their 65th birthday.
