Instead of saving money for retirement like a faggot maybe you should be quietly building a cabin in the woods with self sufficient electricity production, running water and means of growing food so that you'll never be reliant on a system that wants you poor to begin with.

Why don't you just buy a decade's worth of non-perishable foodstuffs? That's really all that matters at the end of the day.

Boomers are the most pathetic generation of all time.

I honestly think they're brain damaged for lead exposure or something which is why they have no empathy or morals.

die poor

Boomer is unable to not "live for today" on his meager social security spends $10k in two months and has to constantly pull extra from his 401k, he will be destitute in 5 years.

Gen X who also retired lives comfortably for the next 9 years on his 72t disbursements and will start drawing social security at 62.

Gigacope article

Boomers like my parents are live on age pensions, but live in multi-million dollar homes that they own 100% outright with no mortgage

Their age pension is technically "poverty"

But they're living in "poverty" in a post code a $200k engineer cant afford to live in.

Somehow, a boomer with 1.5M real estate net worth is considered a "poverty"

Any healthy diet consists of fresh food like meat, eggs, fish and vegetables. Imagine being stuck with eating rice and beans for a decade.

Great idea but don't forget to also get chickens. A hen gives an egg a day and eats your leftovers and any bugs that enter your home. 4 hens and a rooster you'll eat like a king. Their poop also works as fertilizer.

My dad was furloughed back during covid and then offered VSS (2 years salary and 3 years extended insurance). Since the mortgage has already being paid off and me and my brothers pitched in with the utility bills the only thing he needs to worry about is the groceries. Nowadays he does Uber due to being bored as fuck sitting at house all day long.

Fucked up knees aside he's doing great. I was wondering if we should open a small business together because he's still in his early 50s and I don't want him to drive all day carrying stranger for chump changes
