Hi,
as you have said that answer cannot be A..
The WORDINGS of the Q are not very clear..
1) Even if I take that whatever he did in his working life is OK and he retired at 60..
2) the only other thing given is taht he is managing his business from last 16 years..
so if he started doing this after retiring, he should be 60+16=76 at the max..
3) retires at 60 shows he has not retired as of now..
From where this MAGIC number of 92 has come is not understood..
