"Trabajemos" está bien. Lo que no está bien es trabajar hasta los 67.

Pretty much like here in the U.S.

Trabajas toda una vida, para después ir a recoger tu retiro con un pañuelo, porque es un moco lo que te dan para sobrevivir.

Yes it's right here in Mexico people old work having around 70 years old, and it for me is very bad and frightful, because the people of that age should be enjoying the end of their life.

That is your opinion. Maybe some people would enjoy working to the end of their lives.

If you say "lo que te ame" it means "do what loves you"

...Personally I'd say "haz lo que más te gusta" though.


Very true, Bob.

Lo importante para mí es el poder eligir. No tener que trabajar hasta 67 o 70 o lo que sea por pura necesidad.
