What if we changed how retirement works with just two clear options:
Option A: Take your well-earned pension and enjoy traditional retirement.
Option B: Choose a dignified exit when life no longer feels fulfilling.
I've been thinking about this because retirement scares me. What's the point of reaching old age if your body and mind won't let you enjoy the freedom you've worked decades for? Between health problems, limited mobility, and sometimes poverty, many seniors seem to just... exist.
Not saying everyone feels this way! Plenty of people have amazing retirements. But shouldn't we have more control over our final chapter? Other countries already have compassionate end-of-life options.
What do you all think? Is having this choice reasonable, or am I missing something important about the value of those later years?
