You can fly by yourself for as long as you can pass a medical examination by an FAA Medical Examiner. Once you can't pass the medical, you can always fly with another pilot in the plane.
Commercially, you must retire at age 60 currently although that should be raised to 65 sometime within the next year.

Well lets see. Chuck Yeager was STILL on Flight Status for the USAF as a Test Pilot 30 years after his official retirement
As far as I can find he is STILL flying after 84 years.

A commercial US pilot has to retire at the age of 60. They are actually thinking about extending it to 65.

and a private pilot can fly as long as he/she can pass their medical (a very thorough one), and show proficiency on their reviews

It differs, but death usually brings a stop to it.
