The estimate is $1,200/month from Social Security. She's done low-paying manual labor her entire adult life, and her joints are too busted to do nearly all types of manual labor now. She has a paid-off house at least. What can she do to get more money?

What’s her spouse bringing in? If dead or divorced what kind of spousal benefits is she entitled to? You didn’t mention her pension, 401(k)s, IRAs, taxable brokerage, cash deposit accounts, checking, etc.

The successful retiree has 7+ sources of income. If her only source of income is SS, she needs to go out and get 6 different jobs and get with the program like the rest of us sinners.

Just feels like people do so much to ensure the success of their children (I’m assuming this is also true in Asia, etc.). Having this expectation that they’ll be taking care of you for the last 30 years of your life is inherently going to stunt their success.

Why doesn't she do low paying, non-manual job that she enjoys?

Work at a national park. Try to be a concierge at a hotel. Be a secretary, an aide, or a lunch lady at the local school. Substitute teach. Work in the church office. Be a clerk at a bookstore.

Not only CAN she work, she really SHOULD work. This idea that retirement is supposed to be a 25 year vacation is insane and probably hurtful.
