許多人都向往退休后充分享受旅游、高爾夫球場和休閑的樂趣,但在結(jié)束自己的職業(yè)生涯前最好還是三思而后行。
A study by Austrian researchers revealed that men who retire early have an increased risk of dying before age 67. According to the research, this can be attributed to the negative health habits adopted by retirees, including smoking, drinking, unhealthy eating and
infrequent exercise.

Plugging along in a hated job can damage more than an employee's mental health.Research published in the Human Relations journal found that employees who stayed at organizations out of either

exhaustion, stress and
burnout.
