    I no longer take it personally when I hear that boomers need to die off to save the country. Could be true. Of course the worthless pieces of shit that we raised need to go too

    I’m in my mid-40s and my wife and I are quickly realizing we are going to have to postpone and/or eliminate some of our future plans in order to be liquid and have the ability to assist our children over the next 5-10 years. We? both grew up in homes when you graduate HS you’re out of the house, but now we’re realizing the likelihood that at least one kid will be living with us post-HS and possibly even go to PSU to save money.

    All this in 5 months. It’s mind-boggling when you think about how much things have changed due to a fucking bad cold.

    Boomers, most underperforming generation in world history?

    Not even close. I won't stand for a rewrite of history

    Online? Thank a boomer. The 80's and the 90's? Boomer sooner

    The issue is the lack of anyone to get the old fucks out now
    Could you just work until say 78 because we? need your taxes and then die? Thanks, Boomer. Sorry about the lack of a real retirement.

    Question for all of you; would you pay $70,000 for your child's online classes? I'm trying to advise my child whether delaying their college education makes more sense than paying a ridiculous amount of money for something which can be attained for far less. Can the university deny readmission if and when they decide to come back? I called the university and they refused to give me the answer and instead directed my child to make the call and ask the question which infuriated me even more. My vote in CA won't matter and I feel this is a small way in which I can make cowards pay for their illogical decisions to harm my family. What say you?

    I wouldn't pay 70k for in person classes

    The reality is that the economy is fucked and will be for years but the 70-80 year-old politicians who are set for life are arguing about HCQ and wearing masks as the focus of this election. Now goggles, too. Burn it all down as a system so our kids and grandkids have a shot.

    Maybe AOC is onto something in her own obnoxious way.

    I believe the children are our are future
    Teach them well and let them lead the way
    Show them all the beauty they possess inside
    Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
    Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
    Everybody searching for a hero
    People need someone to look up to
    I never found anyone who fulfill my needs
    A lonely place to be
    And so I learned to depend on me
    I decided long ago
    Never to walk in anyone's shadows
    If I fail, if I succeed
    At least I'll live as I believe
    No matter what they take from me
    They can't take away my dignity
    Because the greatest
    Love of all is happening to me
    I found the greatest
    Love of all inside of me
    The greatest love of all
    Is easy to achieve
    Learning to love yourself
    It is the greatest love of all
    I believe the children are our future
    Teach them well and let them lead the way
    Show them all the beauty they possess inside
    Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
    Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
    I decided long ago
    Never to walk in anyone's shadows
    If I fail, if I succeed
    At least I'll live as I believe
    No matter what they take from me
    They can't take away my dignity
    Because the greatest
    Love of all is happening to me
    I found the greatest
    Love of all inside of me
    The greatest love of all
    Is easy to achieve
    Learning to love yourself
    It is the greatest love of all
    And if, by chance, that special place
    That you've been dreaming of
    Leads you to a lonely place
    Find your strength in love

    The good news is that I am not the retiring type. I am all but put out to pasture this year and it is driving me crazy. I live for the action. Retirement is death

    Intellectually I agree with you. My daughter worked her ass off for 12 years and did everything I asked. She was a perfect kid and I felt I owed her the opportunity to attend the college of what she thought was her dreams. I was the weak one.

    I forgot. Vlad hasn’t sent me my Trump posting check for a few months. You’re still getting yours?

    78? I thought Race was still working at 106.
