Why not? If I wanted to travel or teach theology, that is what I would be doing NOW. I would not wait until I'm 70+ to finally enter my chosen field. I entered my chosen field at age 15. I actually would be interested to hear how you selected your path. It seems as odd as the reverse...wanting to be in IT, but spending a few decades studying and teaching theology first.

I take a hiatus every 20 years or so and I'm on one now. But I plan to resume my career next year and work past age 70. And winning the lottery tomorrow would not change that. So I plan to be working at age 71 for sure. I do plan to retire sometime during my 70's, but I will continue to use computers as a user and a hobbyist. And I see no reason that I could not be a contributing member of this forum past age 100 (umm, well, ...assuming the forum survives that long).
