It will be very interesting to see the younger generations of women age single, and alone, with no families of their own. Will they have enough saved for retirement? How will they make it? I have an older female relative -- single, childless, early 70s -- living in another relative's garage because they lost their job. Can't find another one that covers the bills, now health is failing. Without the help of nieces and nephews, she might be on the streets.

This sounds like it has nothing to do with "faminism" and being the single, cool aunt. And everything to do with not being financially stable at 70.  What 70 is looking to work to cover bills? I don't know a single one who HAS to do it (though I'm sure there are those ppl out there).[/quote]

I know plenty of people who will have to work until 70 to pay bills, but most of them are married or were married at one time.

Being married and having kids doesn't guarantee being able to retire any more than staying single does. In fact, if one of my friends has stayed single instead of getting married twice, she wouldn't be broke right now. The second dh used her for her perceived money and then dumped her when her savings ran out.[/quote]
