I retired in 2012 about 2½ months before I turned 55.Now, I know why I'm still alive. I retired at the age of 53.5 and have been smelling the flowers ever since. The above facts might show why women live longer than men. Women are more sociable and know that smelling flowers, reading books and traveling is more important than killing yourself working "like a dog."
- The deaths of about 745,000 people in 2016 were linked to long working hours, an increase of nearly 30 per cent from 2000
- The WHO's Maria Neira said "working 55 hours or more per week is a serious health hazard"
- Long hours are linked to a 35 per cent higher stroke risk
- The joint study, produced by the WHO and the International Labour Organization, showed that most victims (72 per cent) were men and were middle-aged or older.
I'm bored but I'm fairly healthy and very relaxed.
