604　How will I manage after that? 但是那以后我怎么办？

My mother, who is 93, lives simply but comfortably in an assisted-living home. Even though she has ample savings, she is always worried about the state of her finances. I tried to ease her mind by telling her, “I've calculated that, given your expenses, you have enough money for at least the next 16 years.” “That's fine,” Mom replied, “but how will I manage after that?”

我妈妈今年93岁，在一个老人院过着简单而又舒服的生活。虽然她有足够的存款，但是她总是担心她的经济状况。为了使她放心，我对她说：“我已经算过了。根据你现在的开支，你的钱至少够用16年。”妈妈回答说：“挺好。但是那以后我怎么办？”
