> It should be impossible to survive from saved money? Wouldn't that mean that everybody has to work until they die? Come on, it depends on the duration, and it is long stretch from parent poster's thought to your "cannot live of saved money" for some time (though would claim, the states that have/had this guaranteed by the state had it more right anyway, basic survivability for retire time should not depend on savings in modern society, only luxury). I mean the opposite, what you seem to want, that you can live indefinitely off a certain amount of saved money, we all know cannot be similarly true for everybody?
