Most people doing these types of jobs for 20+ years have their bodies so beaten down from repetitive tasks that there's no golf or pickleball options in their retirement, even if they could somehow afford it. Their "retirement" is basically sitting in front of a TV for the reminder of their lives.
If they could afford it, I'll bet they would surprise you.
