"These are not sob stories nor would a higher yield on CDs help them much. They lived well within their means during their entire adult life. They only forgot one thing - save for retirement. Couple 1 has less than $1 million in retirement to support a $300,000 per year life style. Couple 2 has an approx $100,000 pension from one job to support a $200,000 lifestyle, with almost no savings." Surely you jest. Maybe they can live slum it and live on $50,000k/yr. I would hope the water from my passing car hits them in the face for being wastrels. SG
