    How do you handle not having a life from which to retire, from living as a bum, from contributing nothing to the Greater Good? How does one accept the inability to life a life not lived but wated, despite starting off very promising. One can’t go back; nor forward for one has nothing to be proud of, not one success; nothing but misery. How does one enter retirement, with nothing to retire from?

    Another thing we should do is to get closer to God. And fellowship with other believers.

    I am afraid that I won’t get everything done before I die. I also want to make sure I help my kids and grandkids in any way I think will help.I want to thank people and tell them how much they meant to me. I would like to leave some money for a few charities. Leave money for my kids and grands. Be grateful and try to instill in my family the importance of kindness, tradition, and following your dreams. what else is there?

    Your advice is clearly very important for a self longer life – but with respect you didn’t mention
    other important personal points – in my humble view.
    1 Recognise how you have not acted decently in a friend/relationship which may deserve an apology.
    2 Remember a friend who is having difficulties – your remembrance will be so welcome.
    3 Tell all close to you how much they have positively meant to you even if they didn’t realise it.
    4 Tell Family members how much you are proud of them and that you will always Love them

    My doctor: “Keep moving”. Too much love of sedentary living and aversion to simple exercise leads to early dependence on canes and walkers.

    Yes to looking after one’s body. My doctor gives laconic advice including “Keep moving”. I know several people who use canes and walkers much earlier than they should (60s, 70s) due to aversion to exercise and long-term very sedentary lives.
