What happens to alimony when you retire?

I know someone in Florida who pays a flat alimony amount every month, regardless of how much he makes. (He's self-employed.) So what happense when this guy becomes too old to work? Will they cart a 60-80 year old man off to jail because he can't continue to generate that much money?

1. It depends on the agreement made, but if he still has to pay it at that age, he will have taken account for it in what he needed to retire.
2. alimony will be continusly paid. as long as enforced by law.
