As the Government urges older Australians to work longer in a bid to defuse the fiscal 'time bomb', some are embracing the opportunity to stay on the job.
Last month, Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg signalled a push to upskill and retrain over-60s in a bid to deal with the "demographic timebomb" he said would place extreme demands on our health, aged care, and pensions systems.
Some people saw this as unrealistic, citing ageism as a blocker to employment.
But those still at work said employment was not only providing them with money, but also a routine and a social life.
