I'm 40 and I can say with confidence that's not the cut off point.

At 55 I wholeheartedly agree.

Yeah but you guys are basically dead already!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not dead! I still have to work for 20 years before I can retire!

LoL retire. Look at the percentages of baby boomers who just realized they are gonna have to work to death because they gave up pensions for a better stock market and come back tonme with "retire" that's gonna be a word people use as often as "Rolodex"
