• Retire at 55 → people live to about 83
• Retire at 65 → life expectancy drops to 76
By waiting just 10 more years… you could lose 7 YEARS of life.
Why?
Stress destroys your health.
Your best years shouldn’t belong to your boss.
The real goal isn’t to retire at 65.
It’s to be free by 55 — or earlier.

Statistics only give you correlation of numbers. It doesn't give any causal relationship between the numbers.
More likely you had it the other way round: poor people retire later than rich people. Poor people have a shorter life expectancy.
You need to know what are the hidden variables
