For those of you who subscribe to the theory that today's age 60 is actually how we use to refer to those at age 40, you might be encouraged to know that there is a non-profit that awards "purpose prizes" to people 60 and over who have embarked on "encore" careers helping others.
You can see their link at: http://www.encore.org/prize and see what these energetic folks are doing now that they have hit that magic mark of age 60.
Obviously to some, the 60's is not a time to retire.
