Sorry if this seems like an odd poll, but I've been working on figuring out and posting my family tree at Ancestry.com for the last few months, so I've thinking about this a lot lately.

About and how long my relatives lived and noticing what they did with all their money when they died. Most of them did much better that I'll ever do in this Sh*t BushWorld economy. And when I told my Dad (who's 74 this year) that several of our family members lived to over 95 years old, all I could think about was, Wow, 50 more years of struggling in what's left of America. WooHoo.

Anyway, would you like to die first, or out live your brothers and sisters and friends and, by doing so, watch them all die one by one while you struggle to get by without any retirement savings?
