The situation has certainly worsened with the current economic downturn. <br /><br />We should pass on the lesson learned to the younger generation and pray they have the sense to see the wisdom in saving adequately NOW for their future retirement. <br /><br />The soaring costs of health care means we can't even afford to be sick!<br /><br />Financial education should start in school, as an integral part of the Living Skills course.seniorsaloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15349552912264950538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2398906867139907280.post-46755568267618568522009-07-25T14:24:20.934+08:002009-07-25T14:24:20.934+08:00It is sad that there are so many senoirs in our ow...It is sad that there are so many senoirs in our own country who have no money to sustain them in their twilight years. The figures that are available are out-of-date and, I dare say, many are not very representative. Samples of these surveys were not representative of those in the rural areas and many of those who are illiterate. So, in fact the numbers may be worse.<br /><br />Even those seniors who have saved and have a decent nest also live in fear. They fear their health will not fail them. If medical care is required these nests they have built may be substaially wiped out, if not totally wiped out.<br /><br />This precarious situation arises because we were not very saving-conscious in our productive years. Of course, those making just enough to meet thier needs can be exempted from this description. But many of us have more than necessary to meet our needs, we just failed to contemple enough, we failed to save enough.<br /><br />As senoirs, teaching younger people to save for old age should be one of our responsibility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
