Aging as a process is totally irreversible and associated with several physical, psychological and social role changes that challenge the aged people's sense of self and capacity to live happily. Despite great strides in technology in the field of health care, mobility, and treatments available at our hands, people still face a lot of problems in dealing with old age. In this paper, we will address the problems related to old age like loneliness, financial dependency, lack of mobility, physical and mental health problems, rigid mentality, the generation gap in the family, and economic problems and their inter- relationships. Advancing age is often associated with loss or demise of friendship networks, and difficulty is entering new friendship networks. The paper further presents a discussion on ways to erode these problems along with ways of gaining acceptance of these solutions. Different statistical analyses will be shown with which we can understand the different levels of problems.
