[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 175891, member: 8657"] Why would he still be working at age 69? You would be shocked at the number of folks who aren't financially prepared - not to say that this man was not. I read on this site some of your thoughts regarding investing and I think Yeah For You! I worked in the Safety Dept and came in close contact with drivers who were off work due to injuries or suspended for an accident, etc. Many of these drivers confided that they couldn't afford an hour off of work due to living so far beyond their means. A week off w/o pay and they would lose their homes. Some had no checking accounts, no savings accounts. Never went in for the UPS savings plan deductions. Everything that came in went right back out. One guy was always so broke that he stole other's lunches out of the fridge. We have our own 'retirement gathering' every year to say goodbye to those who retired that year and those who are retired also stop by, as they're not allowed back in the building once they leave for good. There are older gentlemen here who are still employed and can't retire because they're so unprepared. [/QUOTE]
