    Housing costs don’t go away when you own a paid-off home. You still have to pay for property taxes and insurance in addition to the costs of upkeep on the home. This is part of the reason its so difficult to get ballot measures passed that rely on property taxes. Fixed income seniors aren’t getting any more money, and they are trying to make their money last for the remainder of their lives (with no idea when exactly they’ll die and it will be okay to be out of money).

    They also get to watch their savings drop in value over time as inflation chips away at it.

    All of this happens at a time of life when your medical costs are sky high from your body failing from age or treatment to continually treat chronic conditions.

    Getting old isn’t for the faint of heart.
