Elected office term limits by branch of federal government per age! DUH. Should this be done for state level too?

I maintain forced retirement age in elected office is prefered. 10 years over retirement? (65+10=75 years old maximum) or is a 2 term limit better?
Then disqualified from holding the same elected office? Or if 2 terms older than office sought for cannot be a candidate for public political office at all; after age 73?
That would be Maximum 65+8 (2 4 year terms) =73 y\o for President (executive); maximum 65+12 (2 6 year terms) = 77 y\o for House of Representatives (legislative popular) and maximum 65+4 (2 2 year terms) = 69 y\o for Senate (legislative equal\fixed).
Should this be implemented at a state level too?
That seems too much of a range! (73+77+69)=219, 219\3=73 y\o average!
therefore 75 y\o maximum for all three?
I prefer just saying maximum age! 10 years over retirement age which is currently 65. Thus 65+10 years
75 y\o and done!

Love it! AND
From age 18 to 35 i can work pay taxes and vote but cannot be president. Therefore (35-18=17 years of taxes prior to being able to lead our nation. W-T-F!
Therefore 65 (age of retirement)-17= 48 y\o
Just a thought

Maybe it still in elected office after one term over retirement age (currently 65) one must forfeit all retirement benefits (ss , medicare , medicaid, pension. Etc?) In exchange of being allowed on the ballot. No charge for write ins.

Obviously such a policy could be amended (over time)!
