Responsibilities definitely go down again when you become a pensioner, and many employees who don’t make it into management have to leave their job because of age discrimination or health issues at some point before pension, at which point the usually get a job that requires fewer qualifications and thus usually comes with fewer responsibilities.
It doesn’t fall off immediately, though. For a lot of people, at least the first couple of years as pensioners are quite livable, especially in countries that have a low retirement age relative to their life expectancy (e.g. Japan).

Yes but at that point, your body is at it’s weakest stage too.

Also, retire early. You can’t buy more time, and you definitely can’t buy the energy and health you had.
Lol, what a pipedream. People these days are lucky to be able to retire at all.
True, the implied was “if you can”.
