    I put my money in a sock and keep it hidden in my kitchen behind the toaster. I have 43 dollars in there.

    That's the magical amount. Money for bus fair and an eighth.

    SS is only in turmoil because Congress hasn't done what they need to do to solidify it. It's the single best program that this country has ever implemented. Fix it.

    I'm hearing you can set aside some of your paycheck each week in an interest-bearing account. It's called savings. Cut out the middle man that spent all the money and you'd be fine. Perpetuities are going away because people live way longer nowadays and you have no way to measure what it's going to cost in the future. People should be responsible for their own savings. Period.
    First, let me introduce you to negative or near negative rates. Second, when the average American is spending like 110% of their income and carrying $15k credit card statements, thinking that people are able to save for retirement on their own is d2d fucking stupid.

    Get mugged by reality and then get back to me.
    As I was just saying, Doogs hate personal responsibility.
    Get your nose out of Hayek's taint and join the real world.

    I again wonder, when did progressives fully embrace state paternalism?

    If you spend 110% of your income and carry $15k credit card statements, you don't deserve a retirement.

    At the very least people who have their chit together should be able to opt out of social security and better invest their retirement.
