For one thing, that's not the case.

But if they do, then they probably will be healthy enough (on average) to work until they're 110. Then you raise the retirement age. I'd raise it now, already, as I've said, probably to 70. We may not need it, but it's reasonable, and would help us accumulate a bit more "rainy day" money, just in case.
