Comment on Anon calls in for financial advice

• Genius@lemmy.zip ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  I know when I’m going to die, because I’m an independent free thinker. I refuse to face my death on anyone’s terms but my own. I intend to live a rich and fulfilling life, watch my family grow, and then end it at a time of my own choosing, after giving all of my grandkids the tools they need to go on without me.

  If I died to any means but suicide, I wouldn’t think it fair. You can’t fire me, I quit. It’s my life and I’m going to be in control until the last second.

    You goober, even if you’re planning on offing yourself you can still die randomly before that.

      That’s true, but irrelevant. We’re talking about managing retirement funds. I’m not going to live longer than my retirement funds last. Dying earlier doesn’t change that.

      that literally wouldn’t matter to them, if OP responds i would bet you a lot of a fucking money they would simply say “ok and?” and then leave.

        Big brain comment right here. Did you write that before or after seeing OP did that? Did you write it before or after seeing that I told someone I used the term goober because I was keeping it light hearted?

      The audacity to use the word goober as an insult in a comment this stupid is baffling.

      Of course you’re right. Obviously.

      Did you not get the point?

        I’m using goober specifically because it’s not insulting. It’s light hearted.
