[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never be able to afford to retire.[/quote] This is the case for much of my family. My parents both worked until the day before their deaths. My brother’s MIL still works in her mid 70s. My FIL only retired because he had a stroke and couldn’t work. My grandmother retired only after she was physically unable to work and then lived in low income housing until she died. Retirement is expensive. Also, for some, there isn’t much else for them to do. My mother took paratransit to work. It was the only regular outings that she had besides doctors appointments and she looked good led forward to going. [/quote]
