I have known people who died at 30 and their savings are wasted. However I also know people who are old and their body is failing - and they have nothing to live on.

In this region of the world we have a guaranteed minimum income, plus the pension that I built up during life. It should be a comfortable retirement even without savings.

But I get your point. In the case of an older failing body I'd probably just go for the euthanasia route. Why suffer when I've already seen and done it all?
