"According to analysis of the Health and Retirement Study, which surveyed Americans aged 51-61 in 1992, 90 percent of the men and 75 percent of the women worked for pay since age 50. About three quarters (73%) of the men and just under half (46%) of the women had a full-time career job at age 50 or older."
