Never Too Old: Meet the seniors in Singapore who choose not to retire | Full series

[@NEPtune-fy1ug]

can we instead have a video on the 70/80+ year old cleaner/security guard auntie and uncles? maybe shed some light into whether they are also doing it to keep themselves physically and mentally active, or because they have to work menial jobs in order to support themselves financially

[@user-zk6no3no3g]

You don't need a video for that🙄 didn't you already answer your own question? It's a matter of their choices, and none of your business.

[@NEPtune-fy1ug]

@@user-zk6no3no3g why not? so people in glamorous jobs like doctoring get featured, but not the actual majority of elderly people working? i answered my own question based on logical reasoning, not based on actual people's lives, circumstances and experiences, which is what a video can capture. it's absolutely my business when i want to know whether elderly in the society i live in have to work in their silver years just to get by. 🙄

[@Amy-we4ij]

@@NorAishah-y8m but in Malaysia many already retired at 56 even though the retirement age already been extended but people are reluctant to work after 56. I have 2 friends one working in the bank retired at 56 and passed away at 59, the other school mate retired at 56 and suffering stroke at 58. When most of them choose to retire at 56 and form a group to go for holidays, after awhile they have different opinions and conflicts among themselves, the group broke up and exit the group. Everyone came from different family backgrounds and we can’t expect everyone to understand you or your problems that you are facing, we can’t blame friends who are unable to keep you in company every day, be realistic be yourself. I have been working since 1980 and managing 4 companies of my own and I don’t like to spend times gossiping or talking about family problems to others and I spend most of my time in study new things to self improve to face the challenges in my career, this is the way of life I want and do things that can help and give opportunities to people who are willing to work together with you as a team.

These could be isolated cases whom are blessed with good health and possibly do not have family commitments. Generally, most seniors have some medical conditions or otherwise that do not allow them to continue working. Another thing is that those self employed are in a better position to do so. Lastly which company can employ those above 70 or 80? I was unfortunately retrenched at 55 and was unable to get a similar job after sending more than 50 job applications with frustration and depression during that time and I felt miserable cos my savings have to be used prematurely. So may good health be with those working seniors and enjoy your work

When you can’t get a job just prove that you have no market value!😝 My company just employed a 70 yo accountant to help us with IT auditing. A colleague was retrenched. She took the pain to do a diploma to become a childcare teacher. She is 75 now and still working in the same industry. My uncle retired at 67 but a few vendors he worked with before kept approaching him to offer him jobs. At 69, he took up one of the offers cos the remuneration was too good.

[@FairToComment]

No market value? You are absolutely wrong! I was headhunted and have a track record but the situation back then are altogether different! Don’t jump into conclusion.Your view is narrow and skewed😝. You are totally arrogant to conclude a person have no market value when you don’t even know the situation and the industry well enough. How can you be a good employer with such a mindset? It takes the Govt to rolled out all these schemes and even have to encourage and entice employers to employ older workers but definitely not during the time when I was retrenched! Perhaps you have learnt much from the Govt and it is indeed effective. All thanks to the Govt for doing right! Btw, your company can only employ a few and we are talking about the general workforce. Fyi, I do employ staff for my Dept too and I don’t discredit a person like you do.

[@鲁焚化炉]

Seriously?! You think market value doesn’t changed?! From being headhunted to retrench to unable to get a similar job is a strong sign of outdated! Living in the past glory, not able to face the reality and make adjustments will just resulted in retrenchment & jobless!😝

Here in the Philippines. This reminds me of my father a Chemical Engineer retired at his job in the government at the age of 63yo with all the retirement benefits that can support him for the rest of his retirement life. But even so he was not comfortable just sitting around at home instead he met his businessman friend and decided to put up a private mineral processing plant company. He enjoyed working on it since he was developing new ways in processing minerals and even often times invited me to join him going to other places to look at other mineral rich areas of the country. We both consider it our vacation together since we also have time to rest on many resorts before going home. He died at the age of 72yo due to a heart attack while on vacation from work while visiting his family home in the province.

In this platform, anybody can imagine who & what they are. However, it is difficult to conceal the truth of their real life from the contents of their posts. It is human nature to keep talking about unhappy things & situations that they are in, their choice of words and topics shown the mentality that they develop from experiences. That’s why there are people who think that saying that they are rich is the only way to hold their dignity, money is the only motivation to work, etc etc!😝

[@judewarner1536]

No one should be forced to retire while they are still capable. The typical retirement age of 65 is from a post-Victorian era when average lifespan was still less than 60.

[@anglo-saxonconnor817]

No one should be forced to work if they don't want to either. People didn't come into this world by choice so why should people be compelled to work if they don't want to then. We are both sides of the same coin.

[@anglo-saxonconnor817]

This is not china problem. This video is under Singapore context. So unfortunately whether people are happy pr not this is a Singapore problem right now. The pap is trying to convince people to work as long as they could. So people here only have two responses to them either accept it or fight it.

[@CalvinK-the_old_fogey]

@@anglo-saxonconnor817your logic is very silly especially when you said in SG context. Nobody can force you to work and you can resign or retire tomorrow. But what if you want to continue? Retirement age means your company can be sack you legally. Raising retirement age is actually the government’s protection for workers as we all live longer and remain active longer. However if you are referring to countries like Taiwan or China where workers have retirement pensions then you have a valid point. So you scored your own goal 😂

[@anglo-saxonconnor817]

40s do grab delivery. 50s go be security. 60s go wash dishes. 70s go sell tissues. That is the tragic predicament alot of people in Singapore have fallen into nowadays. Something so tragic that good people including myself want to do something for this world to help people to end this cycle of misery. Life wasnt like this in the past in Singapore. Latter pap created this new reality for people with their self serving policies.

[@fanlie1576]

How was the life in the past?

[@RaiunHana]

Hmm..I'd say make the best of what life has to offer. My mother only had a secondary school education and she didn't do well for her o levels. Before she had children, she worked as a clerk. After she had my brother and I, because my father is a deadbeat, she had to become the breadwinner of the family so she went out to work. She found a job as a preschool teacher in a childcare centre. She worked hard and was sent for preschool education courses and gradually got promoted from teacher to senior teacher then to principal. To further her career, she switched from private childcare to PCF and from principal, she was promoted to administrator (in charge of a few PCF centres), then she went to PCF HQ and she's a head of a department now. She did her diploma, bachelors degree, masters degree in early childhood education while working, fully sponsored by PCF. My mother has been working in early childhood education for over 30 years now. She is around 70 years old now and is still working there because that's her passion. From looking at my mother's life, I feel like there are always opportunities to improve yourself, you just have to look for them and be open to them, be positive and not just doom yourself to a lesser fate than you deserve.

This is not my career path. I already said I am born in a wealthy family since day one and I am also an inheritor of multiple wills. My licence that allows me to continue to specialise in my profession is still valid but if anyone is in my situation I doubt there is a need to exercise it full time.

As humans you either end up dying early and be freed of everything before they come into your life or uou live into old age and fall into two categories. One is you made plans for yourself and use others such as your kins or tenants to keep you alive. The second is you have no such luck and blessing and you work to stay alive for as long as you can endure until you fall apart and die shortly afterward. That is life.
