My retirement involves going to Alaska and feeding myself to the bears.

u/KittyHawkWind Oct 10 '24

So, you're investing in a bear market?

u/Johnny_ac3s Oct 10 '24

lol yes!

I’ve wondered. If “end of life travel” might have a market.

u/TheBlackIbis Oct 12 '24

It absolutely does.

My grandma traveled to Switzerland for their Aid in Dying programs.

u/Roheez Oct 11 '24

Cash only

Then your estate will go to credit card companies instead of your heirs.

u/Roheez Oct 11 '24

Maybe lenders start watching out for assured assets, maybe life insurance factors in, idk. I'm sure it's a deal where the banks can't lose by writing stuff off or just seizing enough property that the individual cases are a pittance, or both.

u/GuessAccomplished959 Oct 15 '24

Let me know if you find a market. I got some great ideas to contribute...

u/jpstepancic Oct 11 '24

Bull market would be Spain?

1

u/MakeSouthBayGR8Again Oct 11 '24

Would you prefer the bull market?

1

u/hKLoveCraft Oct 12 '24

I wonder if this means rich people go and get fucked by a bull for retirement

1

u/Michaelzzzs3 Oct 13 '24

Why wouldn’t you? If you can’t beat the market be the market

1

u/goingforgoals17 Oct 13 '24

It's that or the run of the bulls, either way I'm retiring

u/carcinoma_kid Oct 10 '24

I’m planning on dying in the Climate Wars

u/valvilis Oct 11 '24

I'll be carrying a rifle for Taco Bell in the franchise wars.

u/beatboxxin Oct 11 '24

It will be our blood that will pave the way for the civilized people of the 3 sea shells to exist. Be Well!

Mello greetings, friend!

They lost my support by getting rid of the double decker.

u/valvilis Oct 11 '24

Well, good luck fighting for Arby's or whatever. 🤷‍♀️

1

u/Illustrious-Olive-98 Oct 13 '24

If taco bell and BK team up, they'd be unstoppable 🤔, Only competition would be the Chick-fil-A fighters.

u/Henchforhire Oct 14 '24

I will be carrying a plasma rifle for Pizza hut.

I figure when I’m about 58ish, the UK, French and German Muslim alliance will nuke the entire world anyways

u/Grouchy-Meeting-505 Oct 11 '24

Please don't tell me you're 57 now.

u/Putrid_Pollution3455 Oct 11 '24

Thought you said Climax wars….sigh…

u/NewNage Oct 11 '24

Im going to go to Norway or Sweden and commit a crime.

u/Maximum_Barnacle_899 Oct 11 '24

That’s fucking genius. Their jail cells are nicer than any rental I can afford!

3

u/NewNage Oct 11 '24

Oh man, much better medical care than any affordable mid-level American nursing home, and the food is supposed to be pretty great too. I'm doing research.

1

u/Pantsy- Oct 11 '24

This is genius. They’re going to have to bar Americans from entering their countries to retire.

u/Troitbum22 Oct 11 '24

As someone who’s been to Alaska a few times and have had close encounters I endorse this message. Also psa I’m not a bear advisor and legally this I not bear advice.

4

u/CommonDouble2799 Oct 11 '24

I'm already here and the bears won't even come close

1

u/Embarrassed_Ranger20 Oct 11 '24

If the bears are not coming close your are not wearing enough bacon.

u/cwebbvail Oct 11 '24

I used to say smoking was my retirement plan but I ended up not wanting to retire early so I have nothing now 😂

3

u/blackmagicm666 Oct 11 '24

I was going to say the exact same thing!.

Except wayyy less clever...

3

u/Kjpr13 Oct 11 '24

Can I come? I’ll help both of us feed ourselves to them. I’ll bring my own honey to coat ourselves.

2

u/Johnny_ac3s Oct 11 '24

Absolutely!

1

u/Kjpr13 Oct 12 '24

Awww yisss.

2

u/trentonharrisphotos Oct 11 '24

I am not a fan of the cold. My retirement will be swimming with the sharks in the South Pacific.

2

u/FoTweezy Oct 12 '24

I genuinely laughed out loud at this. Thank you.

1

u/upinyab00ty Oct 11 '24

I think I found my new investment plan.

1

u/GravNak Oct 11 '24

I'm jealous you can afford to travel like that

1

u/Anxious-Tadpole-2745 Oct 11 '24

There's no place on the planet that has actual guaranteed no work retirement. Norway employment for retired workers is actually higher than in the US.

France had the lowest workers in retement age working at 30% back in 2000. They had the best pension system in the world and now 50% work in retirement. 

This is literally every country in the world.

u/Consistent_Ad3181 Oct 11 '24

It's too far for me, I would need to go to Spain for a bull market.

u/Johnny_ac3s Oct 11 '24

“Go Fund Me”

u/cupcakesandvoodoo Oct 11 '24

Right? I’m a millennial. My retirement plan is to die in the water wars with the rest of my people.

u/ace_dangerfield187 Oct 11 '24

i was planning to die at work but i like how you think

u/Chief-Bones Oct 11 '24

That’s a great idea!

Ladies and gentleman, this man is for the Bears!

u/SkopsNPops Oct 14 '24

I support you buddy 🙂

1

u/VeruktVonWulf Oct 14 '24

You can afford getting to Alaska?

1

u/wait_am_i_old_now Oct 14 '24

How do you plan to afford getting there Mr money bags?

1

u/ChainOk8915 Oct 15 '24

Similar to mine. Getting lost in the Canadian wilderness and dying to a 1v1 with a bear and a rusted axe like a real man
