If you take away his day job, he would be forced to retire.

If they've been locked down there since he moved out they MAY be getting a bit "funky" by this time!

When people get old, your generation no longer gets distinguished from your parent's generation.

(30 years is the difference between 70 year old and 100 year old). So yes, you can fuck your mom or dad's best friend with no repercussions, provided that they didn't expire yet.

Who cares about his 10th Oldsmobile. Even gm has abandoned them completely, right down to making their name lowercase.

Picky, picky! 😛

Well, yeah... if you were a boomer, would you want to go to some crappy minimum wage retail or amazon warehouse job where you're probably going to catch COVID and possibly die?

 

[Greenman]

So the boomers are retiring, and because of that businesses are closing and the economy is going down the shitter. Doesn't that prove that boomers are the most valuable segment of the population?

I'll be accepting high fives from you lessor citizens during my afternoon walk.

Good reason for a border wall at olds.

Did. They started adding mexican fentynal to your blue clue.

They said, "You ain't hard but you ain't dead." Kind of scared them. Had to pass on disposal. Used up my quota next door.

 

[Exterous]

WSJ ran an article that the number of entrepreneurs is up too - from 3% of the workforce to 6%. So any extra 3% not available for the open jobs elsewhere right now

I'll be adding my old Boomer @SS to the retired rolls in April.

I have a year to go. Unless I get sick of the grind and give it up next week.

She agrees

Retired USN in 1993, this is my civilian retirement.

Good luck on yours!

9 months and I'm 66 and eligible for my full benefit, now need to decide to sell the house and possibly buy a condo or something.

Since the economy needs bodies we should just implement a work requirement for retirement benefits.

Planning on continuing to work at something at least P/T that you enjoy after retirement is key to living a long and healthy life IMO.

Nearly everyone I know who chose not to go this route wasn't around long after hanging it up.

Gonna refund all the money I, and other retirees have paid into our retirements? Pensions and even Social Security ain't "free money." We paid into this plans for decades.
