Honestly, I’ve seen what happens in care homes and hospitals, and have heard enough horror stories.
Unless you’re lucky enough to have good kids, who are able to visit often and take care of your interests, the last decade of your life can be utterly horrible and sad.
Those “kids” are gonna be too busy working many hours to even have time to do that. Not to mention due to how jobs work we almost need to be nomadic every few years therefore your parents may be living in another state/area.
I’m banking on it so I don’t have a retirement fund.
If you fuckers fix everything you better have socialized retirement in the package.
Yes, that is why I don’t have a significant retirement fund. It’s all part of my plan. /s
He’s not wrong … I’m retiring in 15 years. Calculated some funds for the first 10 or so… But come 75 I’d be either dead or won some lottery …
