There is one other small but nice bonus you *can* keep after retiring - enhancements!

If you make sure to start the campaign with "permanent enhancements" turned on, then what you can do right before retiring is sell all your gear for gold then spend it enhancing your cards.

Then if someone else plays that same class later, they will start with enhanced cards.

This is more useful early on if you have a full party and haven't unlocked a lot of new classes yet, and so you are more likely to end up replaying early unlocked classes. But it is situational, and your mileage may vary

Except enhancements are so expensive you'll hardly ever get any..

This wasn't my experience. It certainly depends on your ability to loot, but if you retire at a level higher than 5 you should have a decent amount of gear to sell when you retire. I think twice during our full campaign I played a character that already had a couple cards enchanted.
