  That’s happening pretty much everywhere in the corporate.

      People not being able to retire, even not able to survive on the income they get. Heart attack is a consequence of lifestyle that people have to live these days. Many people simply don’t feel enough, that sense of not being enough and being replaceable often leads to a decline in mental and physical health.

  I would love to get embroiled in some masturbation at work scandal to push them Republican husky fucks off the deep end to rotundo their vision of full-fupa-fap-fest,or as we call it over Anon Hill 34, 4foipstukke (biowoman alt tag: 4 foidstukke), but no seriously, I am with those sad hoshi fuckers from bunker 9 and I do ass to mouth for tree fiddy an ounce. Is this as translator do be is an are isn’t or isn’t of stern to sternum. That’s about as close as the CIA will let happen for an HR dispute at the hookey tongue flange n arms a cookinator that is def not a sting operation, y’know? Do you have subdermal or otherwise subnormal detriterionics known to the state of California? We’re just real close here, being in Arizona, which is a legal state as of this transmission disguised as a broadcast disguised as a waste of space on the internet. I don’t need to come into the office for this. You can just pay me. Or I’ll come into the office as bare as I lay on my testicles in the very present, to mean as of right now but they jiggle weird damn. Fukken balrog in this bitch, knows the twelve steps of Jezzebline and the fourteen stages of the cross. We triple holy out here, mmk?

  Not always, but often, people can save more and retire <60yo if they learn about it and plan ahead. Some people’s identity is too tied to work and worry about losing that. Of course companies should pay workers more and have benefits like in better countries, including healthcare for all, so boss can’t use that leverage. Healthy lifestyle reduces common health issues too, cook at home healthy, mindfulness and be active. It all works together, simple living, improve skills for more income, side work, and DIY saves money, live healthier, keep adding FIRE skills for better health and retirement fund. Mustachians unite!

    My grandpa is ~10 years retired after working as a pharmacist his whole career. He’s calling my parents every month, asking for help with his rent and groceries because he can’t afford both at once with his retirement and social security payments.

    Mind you, my grandmother did taxes and financials for small businesses, so it’s not like my grandparents weren’t set up. But my grandma’s health went down, hospital bills ate all of their savings, and now that she’s passed, my grandpa can’t afford anything.

    It’s not so black and white as “save more and just be healthy”. Not even close

    Unfortunately, the gap between what people make, what peopleneed to survive on ramen noodles and a closet for living in, and what people need to be able to save up for retirement, not just now, but when they are ready for retirement when inflation has vastly devalued their savings, is a very big gap. Only the most successful and lucky individuals get to retire at a reasonable age. The rest are work until they die poor. This was not true of the older generation, who had more buying power out of the money they made, but true for almost everyone that’s first entered the workforce after the 1990s is facing this problem.

      This is not true in all places and often people “feel like” things are worse than they are, but yes some really are stuck, and more right-wing policies will make it worse. I worked since I was 14 but didn’t start career until 2000. I spent within what I made, while friends didn’t and they had financial issues. I worked hard at various jobs and had student loans that I paid off, paid rent, food, car, all of it. I fully agree that companies need to pay more, better benefits and universal healthcare, and we will only get those for all, if enough politicians are elected at once to pass big reforms. It sucks if it’s really impossible to cut costs and learn new ways that MMM and others do, and it’s not just higher incomes if you look into it. There is a post for jobs over $50k w/o degree, which is old so incomes should be more than that now. Ask how can you make this work rather than why it’s impossible, you can do it! It is sad that some get stuck in a hole to start and keep digging in deeper, when they could learn how to do better.
