Do people really work until they are 65 and then retire? How are boomers still working at Walmart when houses were $10,000 and they made $20,000 a year as a grocery bagger in their day?

They are so buck broken its their only way to socialize, they would just rot in front of a TV without work

When I worked in the trades I met a boomer who operated a crane. He was 68 years old and told me he's been working since he was 18. He tried to retire at 65 but told me he got bored after a week staying at home and watching TV and went back to work. Many boomers can't function without working a job

I avoid greeting the old guy who still works at my local Walmart. Dude looks 80s, maybe 90s and really frail. It's depressing

I know a guy who is 80 years old who still works 6 days a week in his law firm because he has multiple sugar-babies that he spends $100k+ per month on

Boomers don't know how to save money because money was so easy for them to get when they were younger.

I should mention. His family pre much disowned him for this.

He basically gets with gold-diggers in their 20-40s

The ones in their 40s usually have 18-25 year old kids of their own, so he does stuff like buy the his "girlfriends" kids cars, pays for their rent, pays for their university, etc.

I know for a fact he pays child support in multiple different countries where he has a kid with women in.


Its really honestly funny what having a decent amount of wealth can do for you if you're obsessed with sex and impressing women

Because they weren't making $15/hour back in the 70s-80s to work in retail/fast food.

Home prices match the purchasing power of the buyers.

Boomers spent all the money because they were trained to consume garbage. Just look at all the hoarders that kept every vcr and diskman they ever purchased.

Because despite what you read most Boomers aren’t wealthy. MOST did not invest their paycheck in the sp500 the past 50 years. They have their entire net worth in a shitty 600k house that’s in disrepair, maybe 50-100k liquid, and then they collect pension/SS.

my parents are worth ~2M dollars and live like paupers, except for spending at minimum $20k/year on "travel"
neither ever had a full time job after age 25
it's literally impossible to be poor if you were born in that era

in disrepair because their attitude is always

poor boomers should be killed. How can you screw up like that. Same for you in 30+ years when people will say "they just had to buy any crypto"

This sounds like torture the more you write about it. Imagine being so sex driven that even after your body stops working you ostracize yourself from your family to... Be a personal bank for single moms. Jesus.

i think your friend is on the spectrum, because theres no way so many single moms could put on a convincing act of wanting intimacy with him. he probably bragged about his situation too. gross
