Is a million dollars enough for retirement, if your 65? Should you work until 72 then retire and live off the money?

It's quite possible; people in a number of countries, especially those who practice certain spiritual disciplines, do it. Many if not most of our ancestors in the distant past did it, and if it hadn't been possible then, we wouldn't be here now. But I was using it as a figure of speech.

In other words, my meaning was that I don't live in a state of anything near destitution, despite having very, VERY little money.As for how many people ACTUALLY live in caves (or similar circumstances) now, I don't think it's possible to really know. Ootskahooooonya 52 months ago.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
