“Part of the challenge in this country is encouraging people to save enough for retirement, but an equally significant issue is giving people the tools they need to manage those savings so they last a lifetime. No one should live in fear that their savings will run out just when they need it most.”
Elisabeth Gehl
“When a man retires and time is no longer a matter of urgent importance, his colleagues generally present him with a watch.”

“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating......and you finish off as an orgasm.”
George Carlin
“How has retirement affected my golf game? A lot more people beat me now.”

“Retirement kills more people than hard work ever did.”
Malcolm S. Forbes
“People may live as much retired from the world as they like, but sooner or later they find themselves debtor or creditor to some one.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“The hardest people to convince they are at retirement age are children at bedtime”
