Mmmmmm it kind of does hit me with not saving up! Like I know I’ll have to go into a share house but I’ll get one with en-suite and it means I’ll just have less leisure spending money which I’m fine with. If it’s a struggle, I just gotta deal with it - but I know I’ll still be happy and fine!
Like of course I’d prefer to rent and have a small place to myself or to have a house, but I don’t want to work too much and have little to no spending money! Like I’m not a hard working person. I’m a bit lazy
And yeah, I think I’ll live well into retirement so that’s why I think I might still be working when I’m like 70 years old! I’m gonna work when I’m old! I’m gonna show off my positive, fun, cheeky, cool, vibrant personality and I think I’ll be good! Don’t want to sound conceited but I think my personality will help in the future if there’s job stability issues!
I’m going to post this one message and then stop because every attempt you make to convince me that you’re not being daft is making you sound more daft.
Our generation are all going to be 70 before any state retirement benefit kicks in. Our parents generation broke the system by consistently voting for low taxes and their parents living far beyond the original actuarial models for old age pension, social security etc. The only way anyone is even considering retiring before that is by having a good workplace/private pension. What you’re planning as being extreme is the normal.
