The best thing is to highlight what pensioners can be doing,light work or small business to keep body and soul together. |

Talking out of point as usual. Is it that you naturally lack ability to comprehend any point of view that is different from the one you decided to hold on to, or you are just being insincere? LandMann: |

koning:whether it's considered early or not by those alive, what will it add to you? You will still be rotten underground. It's better I die when I'm still strong with my dignity and pride intact than grow old and become a spectating liability. You might not want to accept the truth but life is meaningless. You will die and whatever you did will mean nothing to your decaying body. What those alive think means absolutely nothing to your melting carcass |
Re: When You Are Too Old To Work by Feldie: 6:40pm On Jan 15 |
Truthshotcrazy:oh it's actually better to die when you are still strong. You are mentioning billionaires and criminals who looted everyone. Thing is, weda you die at 60 or 100 your body will still rot and whatever you did when you were alive, you will not remember. So forget about it |

Feldie:*Politeness* Don't say these till u get there. Comfortable old folks have consistently said those were the best time of their lives. It's probably not what it seems from outside. Pray to have the full human experience instead of having your life cut short 1 Like 1 Share |

Feldie:Poverty shall never be my portion. My name go enter that Forbes. It's not even about money or wealth, some families π don't live long. Oldest man in some families 65yo maximum dem don kpai. Other families live long, you can count several 100yos , 80yos , 90yos . Excuse me, my grandfather was not even a Billionaire, neither did he loot anywhere. Just a retired teacher and a farmer πΎ . He was strong into his late eighties, blessed with good health, a sharp mind, did not beg to eat, and in his early 90's, when he finally kicked the bucket, he lived a fulfilled life seeing his youngest grandchild off to university. For your info, the world's oldest practising medical doctor ππ₯, was still agile and practiced into his early hundred and something, still working even like 2 months before he passed away . Howard Tucker, MD, a neurologist of Cleveland, OhioπΊπΈ, is the oldest practicing doctor in the world. At more than 100-years-old, he was still practising medicine for more than 75 years. He went back to university part-time to also become a certified lawyer at the age of 67. l pray to live well into ripe old age, fulfilled and in vigour. If you pray to die at 65yo and become vegetative at 65, may the almighty grant you your heart desires. l reject 65 for me and my loved ones. My grandparents did not kpai at 65yo. Neither did they stress anybody to clean poo at 80yo as they were still quiet strong. That l pray to also be my portion .amen

Truthshotcrazy:my grandfather lived till he was 100+ same as my grandmother and most of my uncles. I have analyzed this world, there's absolutely nothing in it. If Trump dies today he will rot under weda he was president or not won't mean anything. If you die today, it will not make any difference to your rotten carcass weda you are 20 or 90 you will melt and have no memories of what happened when you were alive. So forget about posting about people you think are successful. They're just meat and bones waiting to rot. |

PoliteActivist:I actually don't see it as a life cut short. You should check life expectancy around the world |
Re: When You Are Too Old To Work by Truthshotcrazy: 7:50pm On Jan 15 |
Feldie:It's a curse to die young π±. Even the creators perfect will is for you to live to ripe old age, your children children around your bosom. If you want to die at 20, may the almighty grant you your desires. I reject that for me and my loved ones. Who get load, make him carry him load. |
Re: When You Are Too Old To Work by Feldie: 7:57pm On Jan 15 |
Truthshotcrazy:why don't you check life expectancy in Nigeria ? By the way, I didn't call you, you were the one quoting me |
Re: When You Are Too Old To Work by Truthshotcrazy: 8:00pm On Jan 15 |
Feldie:Nobody cares life expectancy figures. There are still old and strong people in my village. Just as my grandparents did not π« die young π±. If you desire to be part of dying young statistics, may the almighty grant you and your offsprings your heart desires!.

These are just the kind of things God looks at and shakes His head. You see how you're spending your youth worrying about how you'll do when you're old. It sounds like planning for the future and all that, but you and I both no nothing is guaranteed. Yes, plan away, but nothing is guaranteed. Jesus said in Luke 12:30, "For the pagans of this world are always concerned about all these things. Your Father knows that you need these things... Be concerned with his Kingdom, and he will provide you with these things." I'm not saying you shouldn't plan ahead, but don't get caught in the illusion that you have the future nailed down. Your only confidence about the future should be God. |

coputa:Children? With respect that is not a sensible idea and it definitely is not a plan It is wishful thinking Your children will resent you for that Not everyone has children. The idea of children as a pension plan is foolish 1 Like |

Feldie: Well, you pray not to live beyond 65, Biden is in his 80's and Tinubu possibly on his 90's |
Re: When You Are Too Old To Work by aribisala0(m): 10:16pm On Jan 15 |
coputa:You are not making any sense So people should not make financial plans? Yes there may be an earthquake or a flood. But that is no reason not to build a house Following your own logic why bother having children if kidnappers can kill them or some other misfortune end their lives all in one day. Have we not seen and heard such. At least follow your argument to the logical end. Have we not seen people who live into their 90s and bury all their children? Edwin Clark is 96 When you do not have international exposure or good education you go about talking nonsense. In advanced countries There are insurance companies that sell annuities that work There are structured pension sold by Insurance companies That is what insurance is all about and why pension contributions matter E.g if you live in Florida and have $100000 saved at age 56. You can purchase an annuity for $530 a month guaranteed till you did and your named beneficiaries will get a lump sum payment of the balance I You die. If you have savings of $1 million at the age of 55 it will be over $5000 a month guaranteed for life https://www.schwab.com/annuities/fixed-income-annuity-calculator Charles Schwab has AUM over $7 trillion. Compare that with the Nigerian Economy |
