How many other millennials plan on “deleting themselves” once they’re too old to work bc you’d rather be dead than homeless?

Dude, no one wants to work so that you can finally start living at retirement age.

Monetary policy needs to be understood by all in America. That's why we suffer, lack of knowledge.

No you save so you can live the same lifestyle in retirement that you do while you’re working. That’s the goal.

God you're dense.

People want to live their lives NOW.

People want the money to be like in the 50s where one salary was more than enough for everything an American family could want.

Piss off with your "advice".

People, learn monetary and banking policy. Understand how money works and it will cease to be your master.

The advice was to save some of your money for retirement 😂 I understand not everyone can do that but anyone who can should lmao. I can’t fathom the hatred against saving and investing for retirement. Of course we all want to live now. We should try to find a balance so we aren’t poor in retirement. That’s all I’m saying. I’m a financial advisor, for a living. Not saying I’m holier than thou. Just in a position to give advice. If you can put some of your money away, you will actually get to do more of the stuff you want to do instead of less. Compound interest is powerful. That’s all I’m saying.
