Instead of working for 40 years and then enjoying their golden years, more and more young adults are taking "micro-retirements." This term was first coined in 2007, and describes taking a career pause before retirement age.

Unfortunately, "micro-retiring" comes with risks: Employment breaks can impact future earnings and personal savings. (Study Finds)
