81-year-old American lives in a camper and works at a campsite due to insufficient pension savings
Original source: Racing.nl

Richard Smith, 81, works seven days a week, combining work at a campsite in New Hampshire with food delivery via DoorDash. He and his wife use a 'workamping' arrangement: labor in exchange for free or discounted RV parking. Smith admits he failed to build adequate savings in his youth due to early marriage and work demands. Pew Research Center data shows a growing number of Americans over 75 remain in the workforce for financial reasons.
