We find statistically significant effects of both pension wealth and pension incentives on the probability of retirement. The effects are more robust when retirement is defined only as a job separation rather than a complete transition out of the labor force. We also investigate possible interactions between the effects of health, wealth, and health insurance on retirement.}, keywords = {Public Policy, Retirement Planning and Satisfaction}, isbn = {0-226-62094-8}, url = {https://www.nber.org/chapters/c10308}, author = {Andrew A.
