Hi annjilena, getting old is a normal physical process so we don’t have to feel scared. When young we have to get ready to build up our financial foundation we then don’t have to worry much about our livelihood.
People in my place who are government servants don’t have to worry much about their living after retirement as they could enjoy monthly life long pension. Private sectors staffs and workers do can a certain amount of employee annuity which is normally enough for them to spend for the rest of the life.
posting and take care.

I don't fear getting old. For one... I am assured of a monthly pension when I reach the age of retirement because I have long been a member of the Social Security System and that is the ultimate benefit I am looking forward to. And more than anything else I am sure that there is God who will always be with me and hence I have nothing to worry about. For as long as I am not going out of God's will... I am confident that I have nothing to worry about. My God is big and He is not affected by economy. I am certain that His love will see me through all my life here on earth.

No, I really don't my Grandparents are almost in there 80's and they are still very active. I think the reason for this is that they don't think about it all that much. Maybe thats the key, take care of yourself and don't worry about the end just be happy for each day you have!
