Retirement should be enjoyable, where both couples who had worked for so many years can finally relax and enjoy. They should had careful planning, especially on the financial aspect so they can go on with their dream activities like traveling, going to nice places like a health spa; etc.

A crisply written article covering this particular topic of retirement. Here generally I find people who are serving in government jobs happily retired as they get pension and other benefits which accrue to them at the end of their service. But the same is not true in the private sector. A large number of people in the country do not have social security or pensions and live a hand to mouth existence. For many there is not such thing as a retirement. As many in the private sector continue working till their death. One more problem these people in private sector face is that they are unable to see more than a month as the kind of jobs are salaries are such.
It is only a few who are fortunate to plan their retirement in advance in private sectors and they are professionals drawing handsome salaries. For other the graveyard is the only place to permanently retire. That is the sad fact here. A good article touching on a very important topic well appreciated.

Okay first and foremost let me just correct you a bit. No one is stupid it’s just that we are all different and we all act in different ways. There are people who are quick to solving issues, and there those that take time to digest and think of ways to solve the issue. We were all made differently. Maybe the way I do things is not the same way you will do yours, the way I will react to issues is not the same way you will react, there are some things that may be a priority to you that are not to me so with all this examples we cannot conclude that someone is stupid because they were not able to behave or react in a certain manner. I remember i us3d to have a girl who used to help me around the house, she used to be so slow. When you told her to do something she would repeat after you whatever you said and that used to make me so mad, but i would still listen to her and give her instructions slowly by slowly one after another. You could not tell her to do like three things at a go because she could not multitask. Sometimes I used to feek feel like I would tell her to just leave whatever she’s doing get out and not come back. But obviously I couldn’t that would be too inhuman. But you the irony is that even with that slowness she had two kids that she took care of and I didn’t have any at time. So if she had the ability to take care 9f two kids would we still call her stupid? Mmmmmhh that’s something to think about right? Check this out we have two categories of people those who are
1 Learned and
2 Educated. The difference between the two is that learned people are those who can be given a situation to solve and they will think with their minds, think outside the box and come up with a solution. And the educated are those who have to use some sort of manual or books for that matter to get a solution to a problem. You see the difference. -
Let me indicate this; there is such a thing as stupidity. As Einstein said, it is infinte. To be so politically correct to pretend it doesn’t exist is rather like calling a person starving to death a ‘dieter’.
The ability to prioritise has always been a hallmark of intelligence. There are things every one of us has on the ‘to do’ list.
If there is a fire in the kitchen, for example, sorting the clothing to be washed should be stopped and the fire put out.
The fact that the helper is not intelligent is evident in all aspects. I only focus on this one because it is so obvious that a normal intellect would hear a mutual friend was in the hospital and react, not wash the dishes.
The difference is not ‘learned’ and ‘educated’ the difference is between intelligent and stupid.
Whether you have a Ph.D or have never been to school is not the measure. Intelligence is the measure.

I agree, donating blood is a noble deed because it can save the life of another who needs it most. Good thing there are non-government organizations who conduct blood donation drive to help local blood banks have reserved blood for those who need it.

Blood donation forms a important social responsibility of each and every individual in the society. There are many organizations and bloodbanks who conduct these drives on a regular basis. The advantages of donating blood are you feel good about doing your bit to save a life as life is precious and many deaths occur due to not getting the right group of blood for the patient who needs it. This very true especially in the case of patients whose blood group is rare and difficult to find.
Some care is also to be taken when donating blood. One should not be taking medicines if one is wanting to donate blood. It should be voluntary and should not be sold. It should be always donated at registered blood banks which are certified by government agencies and they need to be checked properly before going there. Care should be taken and proper safe instruments should be used for taking blood from the donors as other wise they too may get infected. The blood of the donors should also be checked well for any health issues before accepting the same.
