What you do, how you spend it is up to you, but if you are 65 and it is gone, don't look to the taxpayers and government for support. If you choose to, the government can and will contract investment firms and invest the money for you so that you can't touch it until retirement or necessary (buying a house, etc.) Education is not a part of this, there is aid for furthering education available.

This is the ONLY renumeration that can be considered.
