In this Thursday, Sept. 26, 2013 photo, Truong Tien Thao, 65, waits for customers at his small tea stall on a sidewalk in downtown Hanoi, Vietnam. Thao is acutely aware that he, like millions of others, is plunging into old age without a safety net. He wishes he could retire, but he and his 61-year-old wife depend on the $50 a month they earn from the tea shop. (AP Photo/Tran Van Minh)
