It is the time where life should be worry-free and no longer revolve around work due to the limited amount of time you have left on this planet as well as the physical and mental constraint you naturally inherit as you get older. Rather, it should be the stage where you can look back and reflect on all your memorable experiences and enjoy all the best that life has to offer with families, friends, and all those who are important to you. However, you won’t be able to do so if you don’t have some means of financing your final years. You might as well be working yourself to death literally. But what about social security? The sad truth - social security may not be enough. The scarier part is that there is no guarantee that social security will still exist in the unforeseen and uncertain future as population continues to rapidly grow, in addition to the astronomical deficit that the government is already in with its ever-increasing spending.
