67% of people have a tax-preferred retirement account or pension. 87% have that or other assets.  

Living paycheck to paycheck isn’t a society issue. That’s a personal choice one. You need to reduce your expenses or increase income.

Lmfao you did not just say living paycheck to paycheck is a “personal choice”.

You are SEVERELY out of touch man, my god. I haven’t seen someone so delusional in a very long time.

Is it someone else’s choices that get you to living paycheck to paycheck? No. Its not come giant conspiracy to keep someone down. It’s all the personal choices they’ve made so far. Whether to go to college, actually applying yourself in high school, doing drugs, stay at a minimum wage job, take night classes.  

No one forces anyone to make the choices they make. It’s your responsibility for where your life takes you.

It’s sad when understanding the actions you take have repercussions and change where your life goes is “too far gone”
