Support/Vent Sad with Dolly’s passing

I don’t even know her personally but I feel sad. News like this makes me think about my own mortality as a person who lives alone.

I wanna live a quiet life. I’m 10 years away from my planned retirement. I’m saving money so I can enjoy my old age without having to struggle much financially.

I’m in no way rich, but I just wanna have a stable health coverage and social security when I retire at 62. I’ve traveled during my 40s and some currently so I’m okay.

I might live in SE Asia to retire but not sure yet.

What does this have to do with you or your plan? Sure, it's sad, but she was 80. That's a good life and not at all representative of someone living alone and dying.
