I quoted you but this isnt just towards you… I cant understand why people choose there life long carreers BECAUSE of retirement… Your going to work like a slave for 50 years to collect retirement you cant even use when your in a wheel chair or a nursing home? Maybe its just me but id rather enjoy my life when im young without health issues then when im 80 with a million bucks stuck in my bed 22 hours a day…

I dont think ive ever seen a homeless old person… retirement or not, elderly people always seem to be put somewhere and at that age money is less important then toilet paper.
