UFC CEO Dana White explained why he doesn't plan to retire.

“When I was younger, older people would say, ‘I'll retire and drink Mai Tais on the beach’—and so on. I have a great vacation—after 10 days, I'm already sick of drinking, of all this, so I'm ready to return to work. I constantly think about how to make the business bigger and bigger every day,” the official said.
