New? I used a tool offered by my government to estimate my retirement age and it came out as 69. I'm 36 so I'm pretty sure that's a lower bound and it'll only go up as time goes by

    If you can live off what you get. Granted I think they are a bit off not only because its not a new fear but anyone who knows older folks knows people go down at various ages and 50's is uncommon but not unheard of. So to me its the fear of working till you have no capcity to work and then living in poverty in a society thats only concerned with making sure you don't die.
