You may have dreamed of leaving the workforce and retiring early, but have you ever worried about getting ‘retirement regret’?

Burdened with a slower pace and tighter finances, more & more ‘unretirees’ are heading back to work.

According to a survey by financial services company Canada Life, 40% of people have some form of retirement regret, with 1 in 10 saying they wished they had chosen to retire later and that they wouldn’t have left work when they did, if they had known what it was like.
