Was he very career oriented? I have a theory that many who are overly 
career oriented and place their full identity and value in their job and 
career, cannot handle forced retirement. When deprived of their jobs and 
careers, they just whither and die.

I have an acquaintance and his father was very much about saving and 
preparing for retirement. He was a senior oil executive, and a year or so 
before retirement he gets a stroke, and while surviving, he's not able to 
enjoy all the things he planned. Very tragic!

My mother asked me, before she died, to stop saving all the time, and 
actually try to enjoy life from time to time. Even though I'm not good at 
it, I do think about her advice and I try to enojoy more fishing trips and 
stuff, than I did before she died.

Again, if it takes a lot of people fondling my anus and my penis in order 
to live a long life, I think it might not be for me.
