You cant even even figure out how to retire without qualifying for SS...or disability.

You are so bad at this. Granted, I don’t give you near as much low hanging fruit as you do every one else, but you’re still horrible at it

Spewing off Latin doesn’t impress me. Do you call yourself Dr. or Esq. too in order to try and impress people?

So what’s your main point? You have it hard now because of inflation?


It’s a conversation about where we are going as a country and what decent to good earning people are facing. Unless you got nearly a 30% raise in the last 5 years, you wages haven’t kept up inflation

That has caught up to a lot of households for instance

The benefits of retiring early.


You claimed to manage a shipping terminal as late as last year. You complained about not having enough manpower to operate at full capacity because no one wants to work these days, as you sat on social media 14 hours a day every single day.

You can too if you stop spending 2k for three days in bumfrick Georgia,.


Short of nuclear apocalypse or AGI killing off our species, I will be retired before 50 with a bigger yearly spend allocation than what I'm doing now.

Damn glad I went to LSU undergrad instead of borrowing 90k a year for some private liberal arts college in bumfrick appalachia. Extremely low odds your step grandaughter and her gf ever get out of that hole.

The median income of a WF grad SIX YEARS after graduation is less than 70k.

Unironically maybe correct because she'll have to get some dogshit government job in order to have any shot at all of getting out from under 350k of undergrad loans.

Paper pushing government jobs will probably be some of the last to go.

I understand but spending issues also need to be in the conversation.
