I was talking to someone the other day that got scammed out of their retirement savings.

Yes, he was an idiot for falling for it so hard.

However, he's going to be working late into his retirement years.

    My support worker had half a million in the bank, in cash. She got scammed out of it and now struggles every day trying to afford rent and food :(

    Yeah. I just can't imagine the grief.

    You know, if you were the guy in this post, struggling away at your desk at 72 years old, knowing that you're essentially paying every day for a mistake you made 40 years ago.

    I think it would be something like, say a bad car accident that left you disabled, or maybe one of your passengers died.
