On the flip side, a close friend of mine pursued his dream right out of high school with the support of friends and family. He’s now 30 with no work experience, no education, and no money, still trying to make his dream work. I’m very worried for what his senior years are going to look like.
TBF, I have a 3-tier retirement plan (pension, 401k, SS) and I’m still worried for solvency in my senior years. I expect 2/3 of those to be unfunded and raided in the next 30 years.
Even with all that, as a millennial I’m expecting to die at work.
Trying and failing to live life in a worthwhile way is a lot more respectable than doing what most of do by latching onto the corporate tit, never letting go no matter how miserable it makes us, and not having time to enjoy life until we’re too old to, if we get to retire at all.
It’s all about balance. I played drums in a speed metal band all my life. But I also had a job to make sure I could afford to pay drums in a speed metal band.
