OK, at the risk of assuming this is a serious question and not "troll bait", I will respond.
I consider myself a Bible-belieiving Christian, but I would probably qualify as an "end-time fundamentalist" in your book, so I'll just give you my perspective.
No one know exactly when or how soon the end time will be, so we are to live in the world (but not of the world) in the meantime. It could happen in my lifetime, or it could be another 1000 years from now.
It makes sense to me to be prepared both for my future in this world, and for my eternal future to come.
If you are serious enough to want to know what the Word of God says on this subject, a good place to start is listed below.

Brethern,
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?
Take heed!
Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Jesus said that no man knows the day nor the hour that Jesus would return.
So, of course they have retirement plans, just in case.
But we also have the ultimate retirement plan. in Heaven, in case the Earth ends sooner than anyone thought.

No one knows exactly when He will come. Last days may last longer than my natural life.
