We (germany) aim for 67 currently. While it already was waaaay too high before. Work your whole damn life to finally do everything you ever wanted…if your body would still allow it that by then. Mehr, what a horribly bad concept.
every day i feel fortunate and privileged that i lived my life backwards-- i did the whole go apeshit and enjoy the fuck out of life in my 20s, then start getting “serious” about a career. i can’t imagine how miserable i would have been by now if i’d gone straight4 from community college to a 4 year, to grad school, and then straight to “grownup” job without having gotten my “midlife crisis” out of the way when i was young. yeah, i’ve always been one notch above broke, but if i’m destined to work until death, at least some part of my life was awesome
Yeah exactly. You did your best in the best time…though one could argue which is the best time. i was a dumb fuck in my 20s, but i enjoyed everything even more :-)
And yes, backwards sounds a lot better than the usual stupid model which wants to grind you to pieces and THEN throw you out to live in p(i/ea)ce(s).
“A notch above broke” isn’t bad if you get what you want out of life with the minimum amount of work. I know people who have it all and still want more and more while still always being miserable.
