Old age is not far away, but it is also not as short as you believe.

"We recommend that you read this book if you are in your twenties." It's not too late if you're in your 30s to read it. And if you're in your forties or fifties, it's a little late, but we hope you'll find the shortest path to your destination in this book. And if you're over the age of 55 or 60, we hope you'll pass this book on to your children and grandchildren!"

One of the most common human desires is to be able to live without having to worry about money. You will be sad because you lack or have no money, and you will see how miserable life is when you don't have a penny in your pocket. But, if you had to pick a time to prepare for old age, when would you do it? Obviously, the younger you are, the better. When you're young, you're poor and in need, but when you're old, you can live comfortably and freely, isn't that better? The past was difficult, but the present is prosperous; the present is still difficult, but isn't it better to be happy in the future? That "old age" also represents your future. Isn't it pitiful to be old and unable to work? So hurry up and start planning for your future.

But how long, in your opinion, will old age last? You will undoubtedly feel that the number of 30 years mentioned above is quite long. In fact, if you ask people around you to guess their old age (from retirement to death), the majority of them will say 15-20 years. The average age of male employees in South Korea is around 17 years. As a result, if only male subjects are considered, that answer is nearly correct. Women, on average, live at least three to seven years longer than men. Couples live on average for about 27 years. This is only an estimate based on the current average life expectancy. When you consider that the average human life expectancy is increasing, you'll need to add another three to five years.
