Here in the UK, state retirement ages vary. When I started work, it was 60 for women and 65 for men with full pension after 40 years service. However, retirement ages have fairly recentlybeen equalised for men and women and then increased due to the aging population. Basically they can't afford for us all to retire at 65.

For me, it's now 66... and my children are wondering if they'll ever get to retire on a pension. It's currently predicted at 70.
Keep in mind that MOST jobs in America DO NOT have a pension plan.
Most Americans wait untill they are old enough to collect Social Security. Some can't even afford to retire then.
I am so blessed that I have this option and have money also put away.
I can't forget how fortunate I am.
To complain about any part of my pension would be rediculous.
