 With the extra $2,000, $3,000 a month I was collecting in my 60s and my 70s, which helped check items off the bucket list, which helped me not have to lean into my retirement savings as much so I have a bigger nest egg to help pay for my medical bills or to spoil my kids or, heck, maybe you just want to buy a bunch of plastic crap when you're in your 80s. Lord knows there'll be some capitalist pig willing to take your money.
