隨著高齡化社會來臨,如何管理退休資產成為熱門議題,不少人擔心退休生活沒錢會很痛苦,但有錢真的就能安享晚年嗎?

日本一名78歲男子坐擁約7000萬日圓(約新台幣1400萬元)金融資產,還有年金可支應生活,卻因長年過度執著金錢、與家人關係惡化,最終在生病住院後遭長子斷絕關係,晚年陷入孤獨。

日本媒體《THE GOLD ONLINE》報導案例,這名住在東京都、獨居的78歲男子田島博(化名),退休前只是普通上班族,但對金錢相當執著。妻子過去只要對家計提出意見,他就會怒斥「賺錢的人是誰」;兒子結婚、購屋時,即使沒有開口要求援助,他也先表明「不要指望我」。

妻子多年來一直忍受他這種高壓的態度,最後在田島先生68歲時離婚,他因財產分配必須支付妻子2000萬日圓(約新台幣400萬元),對此始終相當不滿。離婚後,他繼續獨居,與長子一家偶爾見面,但每次見面都會談論金錢,像是:「讓孩子上這麼多才藝課,不是在浪費錢嗎?」,甚至告訴兒子:「我的錢由我自己花,不要期待繼承。」

父子關係也因此逐漸疏遠。

直到田島先生在78歲時生病住院,長子久違地前往病房探望,除了準備換洗衣物、日用品,也協助確認相關手續。然而,田島先生不但沒有道謝,反而抱怨「帶來的東西不對,我不會付錢」,看到兒子留下的慰問金,更嫌「就這麼一點?」

長子聽到後終於爆發,直言:「錢、錢、錢,真的很煩。」並對父親說:「如果錢對你那麼重要,就抱著錢一個人到死吧,以後不要再跟我們有任何關係。」

這成為父子最後一次對話。田島先生出院後,長子沒有再登門拜訪過,孫子的照片不再寄來,生日及新年也不再聯絡。即使如此,田島先生仍認為自己有約7000萬日圓資產、年金及足夠支付照護與家事服務的能力,「只要有錢,一個人就夠了」。

但日本內閣府調查顯示,沒有同住者的男性單身高齡者中,回答孤獨感「經常有、一直有」的比例達12.8%;而在日常生活遇到困難時「沒有可以依靠的人」的族群中,強烈孤獨感比例更高達25.1%,遠高於有依靠對象者的2.7%。

報導指出,資產充裕不代表晚年就能安穩無虞。如果因為「有錢就夠了」而忽視甚至切斷家人、朋友及社會關係,一旦生病或遭遇突發狀況,可能才發現真正能夠伸手求助的人已經所剩無幾。

對高齡者而言,退休後除了準備足夠的退休金,也必須維持與家人、朋友及社會的連結,金錢能解決生活上的許多問題,卻未必能填補孤獨。
