If you live in Shartmerica you need a million dollars for a decent house. You need 2-3 million to retire as middle class... and you need 7-10 million if you want to retire before age 40 and not have to work ever again. Hundreds of thousands is not near enough to sustain into old age. Especially not if you have dependents

[Anonymous No.57547069]

Pure greed. I was thinking i'd retire at 8 figures. Then when thinking about what I'd do with the money I immediately thought about investing it. Im a lost cause.

[Anonymous No.57547079]

A house on average is half a million alone. Thousands in taxes and house insurance need to be paid yearly. Then there's maintenance. We're ignoring utilities, groceries, and healthcare. You need at least 1 million to have a home and live like the silent gen who scrounges in a tincan trailer on social security.

Here's my thoughts as a 24 year old bachelor who has experienced the lower class thoroughly by working SEVERAL retail jobs.

It's economic and it's endemic. The required skills required to make an abode such as OPs pic nice and lovely simply cost too much.

Any furniture to hide the walls are likely way too expensive for the average consumer in a poor area. The skills required to properly fix the wall lining or to have a luxury like carpet installed are in the hands of unaffordable services.

IT IS NOT AN IQ ISSUE!!!!!

In Mexico contractors and laborers have the knowledge to fix the damage of their areas but due to being unable to accrue wealth the same way an American can(wealth here is abstract so think Ideas, Education, Positive Upbringing, High level networking, money) is unable to affect the community in a positive way(using HIS knowledge) AND turn a profit at the same time.

Here's the craziest part about this shit.

The sheer WEALTH that this country has is necessary for Juan to be able realize his ambition. Yet, this wealth comes from the exploitation of Juan's motherland. This causes Mexicans everywhere to rush to the source of the wealth(a demon...) and by agreeing to serve it have their "energy" siphoned.

The siphoning of both the traitors and the plundered. This causes the to gain both aspects of that said "race" gaining many who came first and last.

Once assimilation is complete the chosen are to proceed to the next planting which once again, they must labor for the Harvest.

Mom is dead tired from working, dad is unemployed drunk that would fuck up making a sandwich, let alone fix anything

I love my parents, though. Dad does not drink anymore, but still does everything half assed. They are retired and have similar salaries but that's because my mom worked in shittiest paid industry and dad is a war vet. Mom still works secretly, fixing dresses for old ladies from the neighbourhood and charges way lower she should

Most people don' t have the motivation because it's been beat out of them from a VERY young age, we're talking right when they start school. people are trained to be one track in society. if you come from a family that is disagreeable to the herd mentality of how society trains you in life you'll probably be more motivated (unless you have depression or mental illness which is a whole different problem). also a lot of the cleaning comes from the mother, a mother who teaches their children to clean and have a nice place, it passes down. people who have dirty houses most likely never knew a living where they lived in cleanliness. kind of like how people who were abused as children go seek out abusers when they're adults. I am sure they probably operate on the "everyone else around me has a dirty house and it'll just get dirty again so what's the point"
the "What's the point" mentality, deadly to anyone wanting to better their lot.

>The required skills required to make an abode such as OPs pic nice and lovely simply cost too much.
Anon, fuck off. They live like animals. They eat off the floor. You can build a cheap table for a couple of dollars - in the UK we literally have 13 year olds do this in woodworking classes. To paint the walls, grow some plants, and clean the place up really isn't a difficult or expensive task.
>furniture way too expensive
Back when i was poor i'd go on craigslist and get furniture for free from middle class people moving house that just needed to get rid of some sofas or cabinets. These days that market's even bigger. What is gumtree? What is freecycle? What is preloved?
Poverty is no excuse for living like shit. In fact, I'd argue the main reason they live in poverty is because they live like shit.

Oh and let's not forget they were motivated enough to get a propaganda box for their dining room, but i don't see many books lying around. Self-inflicted misery; they make their own hell.

That's just the cultural norm in arab countries. They mostly don't use furniture because wood was historically rare and precious, plus it's hard to pack when you move your camp.
>To paint the walls
The walls are painted.
>grow some plants, and clean the place up
It's decorated and reasonably clean. I imagine the lack of houseplants again is cultural. Desert dwellers aren't going to waste water on such a thing.

Good luck retiring with your sub million working to death.
If you retired at 60 with 800k and you lived off 100k/ year you’ll run out by 68. Even if you stick to the typical only withdraw 4% that’s only 32k that’ll last you till your 85 but that would barely cover you living expense not including all your health expenses.

Why would you feel the need to live off 100k a year when you only have 800k?

[Anonymous No.57555242]

>>57554386
I’m just using it as an example. The point being if you want to live a somewhat decent life to cover you all the way through your 80s and likely 90s you’re going to need a good amount.
Even if you did 60k a year would only last you till you’re 73. Then what? Not a lot of places you can work to get income at that age
