    Lol, retirement.

    How old are you that you think you will get to retire? I’m not being facetious. I will never retire. I’ve accepted it early so I don’t get more depressed when I’m old and tired.

      Age of old-woman-man in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. And it’s just a term. Figuring out how to save a little and how to grow it is more about creating a safety net, to know I won’t be unhoused again, won’t need to sell plasma for bread or work for assholes. I don’t intend to actually retire, even if that’s an option.
