Post-Retirement: Return To Work After Retirement

By Hassan Sohail
2k18/MC/61
Feature 

Six years ago, Anees Fatima was teaching fervently in a class packed with scores of students. Her career was going smoothly until her retirement came. After she retired, she faced a burning question what to do next?

The question itself is a puzzling topic to the retirees. There is a notion floating about many retirees choose leisure in lieu of work. However, the research said otherwise. 

An economist at Harvard Medical School named Nicole Maestas in his analysis study found that most people try retirement, then change their minds. Moreover, a survey from RAND Corporation, found nearly 40 percent of workers beyond 65 had formerly, at a point, retired.

“We definitely see evidence that retirement is fluid,” said Kathleen Mullen, a RAND senior economist. “There’s less of the traditional schedule: work to a certain age, retire, and see the world. We see people lengthening their careers.”

The conventional view of retirement as an abrupt exit from the labor market is no longer valid today. Alternatively, a rising number of retirement-age adults work in paid jobs after retirement. 

Take for instance, Vice Admiral Asaf Humayun, who joined the Pakistan Navy in Dec 1970. In his distinguished career, he received numerous medals including Tamgha-i-Imtiaz. He retired, eventually. But the retirement wasn't working for the admiral. He, then, return to work as Director General of National Centre for Maritime Policy Research. Also, serving as visiting faculty at the Bahria University.

Working is the best way to remain tied up. A similar study by the Oregon University, a research university in Eugene found that working after 65 may add several years to your life. The study found that working mere one year past age 65 can lower your risk of death by 11%. 


As many retirees discover, leaving one life to start any other is challenging. Michael Long Hurst is a former shrink who interviewed 200 retirees to grasp retirement for a major research project.


"When people are in the workforce they often have recreational activities that they're very fond of, such as golf or fishing, and they envisage that that's what they will be doing in retirement," he said.

"Now that's OK during what's known as the honeymoon phase of retirement, which is the time where it just feels like a long holiday, but after a while, those recreational activities, there is just not enough in them to provide satisfaction or a sense of purpose."

Manzoor Farooqui, an erstwhile senior auditor of NBP (National Bank of Pakistan), was unwinding his recently-retirement period at home. When, his father inquired him about his retirement plans, "I have worked for 37 years in NBP and wouldn't need to do anything else," he said.  Following which his father rejoined, "If you possess Croesus treasure, it will too exhausted, if you ought not to do any work." 

Subsequently, Anwar-ul-Haq Farooqui (Manzoor's father), who was also a noted doctor, furnished his unique formula of dentifrice to him. Which he had previously tested in Rangoon, during his sojourn and had received positive feedbacks.

At first, Manzoor was skeptical of the effectiveness of the product, however, all his reservations polished off when he received extremely good response about his tooth-powder. 

To avoid mental anguish, depression, and frustration as many older adults who retired experienced. Manzoor started to work in his own tuck-shop near to his house. 

During his youth, he has a penchant for writing. Soon after retirement, he fulfilled his dream to pen a book. His inspiration was derived from the likes of Naseem Hijazi and Ismat Chughtai

He, later, then wrote 3 books in three different genres.

Now 78, content with his life, he scoured his utensils and do daily household chores.

The question itself is a puzzling topic to the retirees. There is a notion floating about many retirees choose leisure in lieu of work. However, the research said otherwise.

An analysis report by Nicole Maestas, an economist at Harvard Medical School, in 2010, found that more than a quarter of retirees later resumed working. In 2017, a survey from RAND Corporation, found almost 40 percent of workers above 65 had previously, at some point, retired.

In May 2013, study by the Institute of Economic Affairs reports 40% of retirees suffer from clinical depression, while 6 out of 10 report a decline in health. [https://www.forbes.com/sites/mikelewis/2013/10/22/life-after-retirement/#308670e41677]

WAR OF STREAMING SERVICES

2k18/MC/61 



"I founded Netflix. I've built it steadily over 12 years now, first with DVD becoming profitable in 2002, a head-to-head ferocious battle with Blockbuster and evolving the company toward streaming."
In 2011, Netflix's founder-cum-CEO Reed Hastings said above statement in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, when a price hike misstep by him, prompted lost around 800,000 subscribers, slumped the company's market value to half and almost derailed the future of the company. 

Subsequently, Netflix's finance team sound strategy combined with Reed Hastings rendered "I messed up" apology note to a slew of livid subscribers and skeptical investors turned the tide in Netflix favor. With a year later, the company's streaming subscriber numbers mushroomed. Moreover, Netflix was hailed as the "best-performing stock of the decade".

However, Netflix's peerless position in the streaming space was challenged by the deep-pocketed upstarts. The Hollywood powerhouse Walt Disney Co., to tech giant Apple Inc., all lined to oust the streaming king, subsequently commences the streaming wars.
The streaming wars began two years ago, with the entrance of Disney in the streaming television with the launch of their own streaming service named Disney+. The streaming service racked up 10 million subscribers on its launch day, also predicted to draw in 100 million subscribers by 2025. But that doesn't make Disney+, a big deal in the streaming race. 
What makes Disney a potential rival to Netflix was its vast library of popular shows and movies, ranging from Disney's  enamored animated films to Marvel's top-notch superhero movies, plus pitching the service at a lowball price of $7 dollar per month, compared to Netflix's $13. The smart, pricing move meld with stellar content made the Disney+ formidable in the online subscription market. 
Disney's foray within the streaming TV market in last November, was clashed by Apple's own streaming service. Tech behemoth Apple rolled out its streaming arm called Applet+. Though, Apple TV Plus is a minnow, when compared with Netflix and Disney's massive libraries. However, the streaming services has poached A-list actors and content creators to offer to their subscribed members.
Entering the lucrative South Asian market in the picture. India has already emerged as the latest battleground for media bigwigs. To the extent that, Netflix's CEO Reed Hastings asserted the "next 100 million users of the Netflix will come from India". His rival Amazon Prime Video, snagged the Bollywood's cream to produce local content with the likes of Akshay Kumar and Anushka Sharma. Besides, the streaming service released 10 original Indian shows in 2019 alone. While Disney+ is just too, prepping to make its debut to capture the booming Indian market in May 2020.
Meanwhile, in this streaming race, Pakistan's role compared to its larger neighbor is peripheral. However, streaming juggernauts were captivated by Pakistan's growing market and versatile acting talent. Consequently, Pakistani drama star Zahid Ahmed was roped in for Netflix's first original series from Pakistan. Moreover, another Pakistani web-series titled "Mind Games" is probably going to feature on Netflix, as indicated by the series creators. 
The streaming wars are escalating across the world. According to a report by The Diffusion Group, all major TV media could launch on-demand streaming services by 2022. “Big media companies are reacting more boldly to changes in TV viewing behavior,” Mike Berkley, TDG senior advisor and author of the new report, said. “Consolidating, bulking up on originals and marketing directly to consumers are driving their strategic direction.”
However, on streaming wars, from Disney to Apple executives denied there is one. Netflix's CEO, even called streaming wars "a good thing for business." But, the recent move by Disney to ban Netflix ads on its networks highlighted the extreme competition.  
The on-demand video streaming is approximately $24 billion industry. With the video subscription market is predicted to reach $687.2 billion by 2024. Hence, every major player in the game wants to grab a bigger piece of the pie.

"I founded Netflix. I've built it steadily over 12 years now, first with DVD becoming profitable in 2002, a head-to-head ferocious battle with Blockbuster and evolving the company toward streaming."
