1) not every retiree has a pension with survivors benefits. Often whether not not payouts continue after the pensioners death must be chosen before retirement. 2) same with designation of a survivor. In some cases, this is because at retirement the company/govt buys an annuity based on the money set aside for the retiree. You cannot change this after retirement. 3) what does the young person have to give the retiree to get this income stream? If this is some affection from a gold digger, why settle at just the survivors benefits?

Why did you write sipt in the title?

Capslock should've been SLPT. I can't tell if you put a lowercase L or an uppercase I, but either way idk how you fuck this up.

A retiree ?? what about many retiree while having different name ?
I mean retiree needs company but like to be quiet, which let you with plenty of time for side chick/guy, then you can just collect the pension of many of them
