My father had an 84yo boss that he marvelled at because the dude never got sick, only took a handful of vacations because his (ironically) japanese wife insisted, and basically lived in that office - he didn't need the money , he exited for like $10M aaages ago and all his children were executives (besides 1).
My father also remarked, he was the greediest man he had ever seen. Some people are so intertwined with their "hungry ghosts", work becomes the addiction, and stopping work is like telling an hardcore addict to anything to go cold turkey. To quit and retire would be the withdrawal that kills them rather than the work itself.
