The National Statistical Office surveyed and announced how much our people earn and spend by life cycle. When you turn 27, you make more money than you spend, and when you get older, you're back in the red.

Yoo Deok-gi reporter reports.

Older people, I regret not having saved enough in the middle of the day.

[Lee Jong Do / Seoul Yangcheon-gu: I earn a lot in my 40s and 50s. But now I earn a lot and it's time to go out again. That's the golden flag of life.

The National Statistical Office examined how labor income and consumption vary with age.

The so-called surplus starts at the age of 27 when the money you make is more than the money you spend.

Until then, the focus was on spending money on education with no such income, especially at the age of 16, most often at the high end.

The golden age of life that began at the age of 27 peaks at the age of 41 when the surplus rises to 31.09 million won.

After that, the surplus gradually began to decline, and at 59, the life of the deficit begins again.

If you don't have enough money, you can have a crisis.

[Kim, Young-Im / Seoul Gangseo-gu: I don't have much money saved. The money I saved is only one house.]

By the age of 65, when you start getting pensions, you have no income, so you can be your biggest life for six years.

After that, you will start to get sick all over your body, and you will need a lot of health care costs.

Health care costs at this age have increased by 10% annually since 2010.
