>people obsess about saving for retirement at 60-70

Why? Being old isn’t fun, and there’s a chance you can get diagnosed with a terminal illness during your 20s/30s/40s/50s before you even get to your retirement age to finally access your retirement fund

I use to think my siblings were retarded for spending all that money going into debt traveling the world in their early 20s, buying fancy cars and all that shit, but they actually did life right… they did that stuff when they were at their peak adult-youth, now they have experiences and memories for life that they experienced when young. They got it out of their system, now they can just relax the rest of their life.

Meanwhile us autists waste our peak adult years (20-30) grinding away in order to maximise out funds for age 60+ … As if it fucking matters by that point…

You can work hard in your 20s when you have energy and then relax later or you can relax in your 20s and have to work hard when you can barely move without occuring pain everywhere. Out of these two options working when you are young makes a lot more sense to me.

Do none of you have wealthy elderly people in your family?

My grandfather is in his 80s now, multimillionaire, and he can’t even enjoy it because he’s tired all the time

My parents own multiple properties in their 60s and are too tired to do anything besides watch tv all day.

All of them tell us to enjoy life when you’re younger because it’s all fucked when you’re older and no amount of money can fix being old

This is why my siblings all went yolo mode in their 20s

It's a real dilemma. I have no issues being frugal but I also don't plan on getting too old so I need to find the right balance of saving/living and maybe even alter my investment style appropriately. Anyone else in the same boat?

To extend on this

The life my parents and grandparents have aren’t any that much different to people their age who live in state-housing on government pensions, they all do the same shit at that age

Your taste buds go to shit as you get older so you being able to buy a $80 steak vs a $10 steak doesn’t even matter

>> No.49984047

the problem is anything you enjoy as a 20 year old is practically useless when you're old anyway

"good memories" don't help when your back hurts 24/7 and you get exhausted walking up a flight of stairs

basically life sucks no matter how you spin it

I’m speaking from what my own parents said to me and my siblings

My parents did the whole saving for retirement and maximising investments and they literally told me and my siblings to do everything we want to do when we’re in our 20s and not to wait until later in life because when you’re older it’s harder/impossible/shitty and your brain can’t even enjoy it at that point, which is why they said to do all that stuff young when our brains and bodies are still young and fresh

My siblings are all married with kids in their early 30s now

They spent their early-mid 20s travelling the world and gaining experiences, then in their late 20s got married and had families by their early 30s

Us autistic investment incels have no families, no experiences, nothing, just investments we stare at everyday and coom over how much compounding interest we’re getting and how much we will have by age 60

I read somewehere that there is a correlation between a good sense of smell, and life expectancy. Maybe because it makes life worthwhile. The finer nuances of "taste" are basically all smell.
My mom has excellent sense of smell and at 82 years isnt showing any signs of being "tired" or losing appetite and discerning taste for food.

I definitely made the most out of my early 20s, partied a lot and went to festivals, now I am 30 and pretty poor but the country will be socialist by the time I'm old enough to retire so who gives a shit? All I care about is making enough income in the meantime to support a family

See the thing is investing has nothing to do with your inceldom. You are probably genetic trash - balding/short etc. and you think that investing and sitting at the computer all day long is the reason while it's the other way around. Many of us are extremely autistic and not particularly good looking, if I said fuck it and I just tried enjoying life and yoloing into everything my life would be exactly the same, since I'm a fucking retard unable to form any relationships and I'm balding at 24. The average or above average person can get a gf and enjoy life, no matter if he's a hedonistic degenerate or he's saving up for a fucking retirement that may never even come

I have traveled to more places then all of my normie friends. I almost never talk about it or post about it online. Parties, drugs, sex, the whole nine.
