Thank god I have some savings. Too bad my retirement is tied to the "economy"

Anyone else feeling like it doesn't make sense to save for a future that'll suck? Like if I wanna travel to Europe, does it make sense to wait until climate change fucks shit up?

I remember reading in Sapiens how credit works because most people believe the future will be better. What happens when that's no longer the case? What happens when that becomes super obvious

That was a good article, OP! Thanks for sharing

Savings are always a good idea; it's best to have money if fired or you want to quit.

We should stay hopeful while being realists; being negative does not help our health, physical or mental.

Travel whenever you can; why wait for a job that will quickly replace us when we die...
