Japan's old-age security payments are reasonable. But if you can't find a sense of community, you are losing your closest friends every year it is easy to feel alone. Being forced into someplace with a group where your basic needs are cared for and something to do is a decent sounding alternative. Though if there was decent enough community programs, group accomodation (some are choosing to live in with others like a college dormhouse instead of a longterm care home) then some of these problems could be prevented.
