Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Maintains Outperform on Willis Towers Watson, Lowers Price Target to $371

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket">Kevin O'Leary</a>—known to many as "Mr. Wonderful" from the hit show "Shark Tank"—is a well-known critic of early retirement. His personal success, with a net worth around $400 million, contrasts sharply with his warnings that quitting work too soon might lead to unforeseen challenges.&nbsp;
Data from the <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/scf/dataviz/scf/table/#series:Retirement_Accounts;demographic:agecl;population:all;units:median">Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances,1989 &#8211; 2022 </a>shows that Americans aged 45–54 hold a median retirement savings of about $115,000, while those aged 55–64 have roughly $185,000 saved. Although some in the FIRE community manage to build impressive nest eggs early, these figures reveal that the average worker faces a steep climb.

<li>Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stay Engaged for a Lifetime</h2>
Early retirement forces one to stretch a fixed sum over nearly 50 years rather than a more common 30, which dramatically ups the risk of running out of funds. O'Leary recalls how, after selling his company and retiring in his mid-30s, a sudden wave of boredom and a sense of lost purpose quickly set in.&nbsp;
He once said, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6HCznNPhW8">Working is not just about money</a>," highlighting the role employment plays in shaping identity and keeping social connections alive.&nbsp;
A<a href="https://www.resumebuilder.com/1-in-8-retirees-plan-to-go-back-to-work-in-2025/"> recent Resume Builder survey</a> found that 42% of retired seniors are actively looking for work to fend off monotony. Meanwhile, <a href="https://time.com/7260357/aging-workforce/">Time</a> reports that 19% of U.S. adults aged 65 and older still work—not merely for extra cash but to stay mentally active.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.ed.</a>
There's also a tough financial side to this debate. A longer retirement means the same savings must cover more years of living expenses, healthcare, and rising costs.&nbsp;
As a <a href="https://content.schwab.com/web/retail/public/about-schwab/schwab_2024_401k_participant_survey_findings.pdf">Charles Schwab stud</a>y shows, many U.S. adults now believe they need roughly $1.8 million for a comfortable retirement—a figure that has jumped sharply in recent years. This gap between expectations and reality challenges the early retirement dream for most.
On the flip side, some experts offer a counterbalance to O'Leary's cautious view. Leaving the traditional work environment earlier can free up time for creative pursuits and deep work, opening up new avenues for personal fulfillment.&nbsp;

Similarly, voices like <a href="https://www.partnercoloradocu.org/resources/financial-literacy/blog/march-2025/the-fire-movement">Partner Colorado Credit Union</a> say that aggressive cost-cutting and high savings rates can create a strong financial buffer, making an early exit possible if planned carefully.

Kevin O'Leary Says Early Retirees Are Making A Big Mistake—'Staying Stimulated Is How People Live Into Their 90s'

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
