As baby boomers reach "peak 65," the debate over the appropriate retirement age intensifies, with the U.S. facing the question of when to retire. The mandatory retirement age for airline pilots is under scrutiny, as more Americans turn 65 every day. With Social Security's full retirement age moving to 67, lawmakers are considering raising the retirement age to address the program's financial shortfall. However, this change could result in benefit cuts, affecting workers differently based on their occupation and income level. The outcome of the presidential race may influence the decision, while Congress has already raised the retirement threshold for required minimum distributions to age 73.
