If you charge the costs of your pension (I challenge you can make even 5k when you are 80+ years old) and health on society, sure, you can live on that amount.

- VLM 13y agoThat was also my first reaction to the title, "so I see they've met my grandmother". Prop tax on half a house and some maintenance is a couple hundred a month, and some food, that's about it. She obtained about 4,5,6 who knows how many times as much from pensions and from SS but she actually only spent perhaps $5K/yr on herself. Too old to drive safely, not into consumer electronics other than a top of the line TV and top of the line satellite subscription (only old people watch TV anymore), loved to cook / didn't like restaurant food / very picky about food, not into clothing fashions, what is someone like that supposed to spend money on for themselves, anyway? Mostly gave her money away to charities, family, etc.
