If I work too much, I won't live long enough to enjoy retirement.
You say that, but back in the '80s I used to work 60 hours a week, with a 9 month stint at 72 hours a week. I fully expected to die slumped over my desk, especially since my family has a penchant for dying at 58 or less years old, with few exceptions. I retired at 62, and I'm still kicking at 69. Don't sell yourself short, especially if you're not doing things that caused your predecessors to die sooner. In my family's case, it was tobacco.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
