More and more old people go on working at their oldest ages. Even though this might be beneficial as it is additional income for them and a leisure activity, I completely disagree because this is detrimental to their health and it is pointless as well.
Admittedly, working while you are retired brings a good amount of money, which is essential when you get a low pension. In most cases, your pension cannot provide a sufficient number of products, as inflation increases significantly all the time. So, having a job when you are old enough may work better for Furthermore, most old people are addicted to working rather than sitting at home.Thus, having a permanent job even after retirement might be their hobby, and they will not have any time to get bored.
However, this impacts your health negatively. After working for long hours, you may have headaches, backaches, and other symptoms. Also, it is unlikely to perform a good job when you have already started aging. As senior citizens, we mostly forget basic things quickly or have problems hearing and seeing. As a result, they deteriorate dramatically in their health conditions while trying to work. Moreover, I think that at this age, senior individuals need to relax and enjoy life. They should enjoy the fruits of their long work. Besides, they have children and grandchildren who are capable of supporting them financially.
In conclusion, while working when you are old might have benefits like extra money and entertainment, I strongly believe that this is useless and meaningless, and it will have negative effects on your health.
