yeah it's totally sweet to work 60 years and have nothing to show for it. i think some people just can't find things to do on their own. everyone is different i guess
If you can work 60 years with nothing to show for it, that's mostly a you problem.
you must be a boomer who already owns a home and enjoyed the golden years of America if you don't think it's possible.
No, I'm a Millennial who despite f-ing up in his early years is still on track for retirement without needing social security. So if someone who screwed up that badly can do it (I screwed up high school and became a homeless addict after graduation), this generation has the wrong mindset.
Though, given that we seem to be entering end times rather quickly, I'm not so sure planning for retirement is even needed. Just go all in for the Lord.
exactly. we have no clue how quickly inflation will eat our savings or how many 401k funds will go bust. no one gets pensions anymore besides government workers and that will probably vanish some point as well. you should not blame the people for this though. it's obviously the policies. i don't blame people for spending what little they have now if they barely can scrape up an extra $50 extra a week. After a certain point it really doesn't matter. Save a few extra dollars that gets inflated away in a few years. Fuck it
