Craig Newmark's Boomer Unretirement

Craig Newmark is the founder of the popular online classifieds site Craigslist. He spoke at an event I attended last week.  During the Q&A he was asked about his exit strategy for Craigslist.  His response was "death is my exit strategy."

We've posted in the past about boomers wanting to continue working well past traditional retirement age.  While Craig is likely an outlier, he is a good example of boomer's views towards retirement.

I'm 55, squarely in the middle of the boomer thing.
