I’m 40 and I’ve always “known” that there would be no retirement for “us”.
Consequentially, as the eternally wise Homer Simpson once stated; “my lifestyle is my retirement plan”.
I genuinely hope never to reach age 70 or over. I’ve known lots of old people in my life and the ONLY TWO who were somewhat happy were my maternal grandparents. And even they will soon have to deal with losing one another since they’re so old.
I don’t intend to go through all that. I’ll live what I can, as long as I can, and as soon as I can’t anymore, it’s exit left.
