Ever heard of the “Golden age” of retirement? There’s nothing “Golden” about it. Most people, who will be lucky enough to get a retirement, will get half, or a third, of what they couldn't live on while they were working. How is that being the “Golden Age”? Is it worth giving your best years of your life for?
It didn’t take me long to realize that I would never get rich for as long that someone else is in control of my paycheck. I’m worth a million buck, who ever hires me knows that, but they get me for cheap.
