It all depends*, of course, on what you're doing at age 85. Some folks just plain 'ol get tired of living. Not happy, not unhappy but simply 'done'. That's what I'm shootin' for. At that age, it seems like the people around you are the most important they'll ever be.

Doing stuff for other people while you can really is an investment. But I do not advertise nor volunteer for anything.

Neighbor brings me cookies, another invites me to their family BBQ's. My grand kid keeps getting shoved on me. House is dusty but I dont care.

Way better than sitting in front of a computer or driving around all day so I can retire rich.




* pun alert

Fixed that for you.
