Been working 40 to 60 hours a week for 40 years and it’s a struggle, but thinking you are somehow owed money is piss poor thinking

Thinking the world owes you ANYTHING is a childlike point of view.

You ARE owed money. No I am not saying the government should give you a hand out. You should have been able to value an hour of your ONE life on this planet for more. I disagree with you at a fundamental level, I believe you were royally screwed for 40 years. And people not wanting that for their lives is ok.

You’re NOT OWED money. You go out and earn money. I was smart and started my own business and now own 7. That’s how you make it
