How do you deal with the thought of having to work for 40+ years and then when/if you retire, you’re too old to do much?

Just wait until your eyesight fails you, and the joint that makes your mouse button click starts hurting.

Things that you love to do after work (like playing video games) start to sound like chores.

I’d rather pick that, than starve to death.

Goes without saying.

Just take care of yourself and make sure you work for a living and not the other way around, that’s my motto.

Shit, the 2nd paragraph hit much earlier than that. It hit me even before my 30th bday

Yep, here I am suffering some pain on my right shoulder, wrist an index finger after yesterday’s small gaming session.

Still, gotta Doom.
