    I think you might have missed that people didn’t retire earlier, they straight up died in their 50’s.

      That’s not what the graph says.

        That’s exactly what it says. It says “the average American died at age 51”.

          I mean the graph we’re talking about, the one with retirement. If the retirement age was higher and you count in the data from the other graph, that makes it even worse. It means that many people worked their asses off right to their death, without being able to retire at all.

            What graph? It’s a meme with that wrestling guy. I only see one picture.
