<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket">Kevin O'Leary</a>—known to many as "Mr. Wonderful" from the hit show "Shark Tank"—is a well-known critic of early retirement. His personal success, with a net worth around $400 million, contrasts sharply with his warnings that quitting work too soon might lead to unforeseen challenges.&nbsp;
Data from the <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/scf/dataviz/scf/table/#series:Retirement_Accounts;demographic:agecl;population:all;units:median">Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances,1989 &#8211; 2022 </a>shows that Americans aged 45–54 hold a median retirement savings of about $115,000, while those aged 55–64 have roughly $185,000 saved. Although some in the FIRE community manage to build impressive nest eggs early, these figures reveal that the average worker faces a steep climb.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stay Engaged for a Lifetime</h2>
Early retirement forces one to stretch a fixed sum over nearly 50 years rather than a more common 30, which dramatically ups the risk of running out of funds. O'Leary recalls how, after selling his company and retiring in his mid-30s, a sudden wave of boredom and a sense of lost purpose quickly set in.&nbsp;
He once said, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6HCznNPhW8">Working is not just about money</a>," highlighting the role employment plays in shaping identity and keeping social connections alive.&nbsp;
A<a href="https://www.resumebuilder.com/1-in-8-retirees-plan-to-go-back-to-work-in-2025/"> recent Resume Builder survey</a> found that 42% of retired seniors are actively looking for work to fend off monotony. Meanwhile, <a href="https://time.com/7260357/aging-workforce/">Time</a> reports that 19% of U.S. adults aged 65 and older still work—not merely for extra cash but to stay mentally active.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.ed.</a>
There's also a tough financial side to this debate. A longer retirement means the same savings must cover more years of living expenses, healthcare, and rising costs.&nbsp;
As a <a href="https://content.schwab.com/web/retail/public/about-schwab/schwab_2024_401k_participant_survey_findings.pdf">Charles Schwab stud</a>y shows, many U.S. adults now believe they need roughly $1.8 million for a comfortable retirement—a figure that has jumped sharply in recent years. This gap between expectations and reality challenges the early retirement dream for most.
On the flip side, some experts offer a counterbalance to O'Leary's cautious view. Leaving the traditional work environment earlier can free up time for creative pursuits and deep work, opening up new avenues for personal fulfillment.&nbsp;

Kevin O'Leary Says Early Retirees Are Making A Big Mistake—'Staying Stimulated Is How People Live Into Their 90s'

Willis Towers Watson's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WTW#NYSE">WTW</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.8% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.06 million shares sold short, which is 1.37% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.77 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Willis Towers Watson's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Willis Towers Watson's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.51%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Do Investors Really Feel About Willis Towers Watson?

WTW Announced Today A New Scientific Partnership With Cornell University To Quantify The Risks Of Severe And Sustained Drought Worldwide

U.S. stocks advanced midday Tuesday, demonstrating resilience despite escalating geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainties between the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">world&#8217;s two largest economies.</a>
China responded to President Donald Trump&#8216;s 10% import tariff with targeted countermeasures, including restrictions on key mineral exports to the U.S. and tariffs on American energy products.
Beijing is raising tariffs by 10%-15% on select U.S. imports, including coal, liquefied natural gas, crude oil, agricultural machinery and vehicles. Additionally, China added PVH Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PVH#NYSE">PVH</a>) and Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) to its &#8220;Unreliable Entity List,&#8221; citing the need to &#8220;safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests,&#8221; and opened an antitrust investigation on Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>).
Market participants had anticipated a call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday, but media reports indicated the conversation would not happen today.
The trade developments had an immediate impact on oil markets, with West Texas Intermediate crude futures plunging 3% overnight to as low as $70 per barrel. 
Yet, prices rebounded sharply Tuesday morning following reports that Trump is considering issuing a memorandum aimed at inflicting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43469234/trump-prepares-maximum-pressure-on-iran-oil-jumps-above-73-energy-stocks-rally">maximum economic damage on Iran</a>, potentially leading to a sharp decline in Iranian oil production.
Energy stocks outperformed on the day, while utilities lagged. 
Among individual stocks, Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) rocketed 22% after posting strong earnings and a revenue beat. 
In the commodities market, gold added more than 1%, extending its all-time high, and silver jumped 2.2%. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) declined 2% to $99,000.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Willis Towers Watson's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Willis Towers Watson's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.98%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
