I can only state what I believe but I can't help you understand it. The biggest dangers are denial's and not caring. Historically that has always been the dangers of loss and failures. It is interesting how many go to denial or rationalize why it should just be ignored as someone else will handle it and/or it will go away. Most of us are 60+ and just want to kick back and enjoy ourselves and let the next ones handle the potential problems. In the current responses you can see that attitude in the majority of them. With luck and a little care most may make it to the final call and not have to think or worry about it. How do you look at some of the bushes that are now not trimmed until they look shabby, or look at the weeds growing where they never use to grow, or take your chairs to the squares to see the parades only to find out they are not there, etc. There are only a few ways to psychologically handle this. Either accept mediocrity, lower ones standards, denial, + others that don't quickly come to mind. If you say none of this is true you may be in denial, if you say it isn't that bad you may be accepting mediocrity or lowering standards.
