We save some money, if we can,
So
when we’re up in age,
We’ll
have enough to get us through
That
final “elder” stage.
To
me, that always meant that I’d
Be
set for life to spend
On
all the things I love to do
Right
up until the end.
But
lawyers talk of nursing homes
Or
live-in help or worse
And
all my hard-earned savings
Someday
might just pay a nurse.
Instead
of using money
To
get through old age with ease,
I’d
much prefer to exit
A
la Thelma and Louise.
