How do you deal with the thought of having to work for 40+ years and then when/if you retire, you're too old to do much?

  • Have you heard of the five stages of grief? That's probably the best first way to deal with it. No capitalist/socialist/fascist/technocratic/authoritarian utopia will be able to fix that. I don't believe there is a better system yet than what the western world already has. Maybe one day UBI will exist and everyone will have more freedom to enjoy their passions but even then it you'll still have to work most of your life.

    Best you can do is figure out what you want out of your life and take the steps to do it. Like what most people have said, living below your means helps with funding your goals and protecting yourself against accidents. Find ways to do what you want now but know there's always a trade off. It isn't fair but I don't think it ever has been, except for a very privileged class of people.

  • Pretty crazy. I honestly can't imagine doing something like this. Like, what's the point?

  • Exactly, the way the NSA is buying the data is no different from Facebook. Only way to stop it is for consumers to have ownership of their own data.

    • Lemmings who quit smoking and/or vaping, how was your quitting journey like?

    Jump

  • I used to vape in college but afterwards decided to quit. Part of what made quoting easier was moving away and breaking from routine because for me it became a part of my day-to-day. The other thing that helped me was doing cardio. Running would suck so hard because my lungs had a hard time keeping up. That shitty feeling also helped push through cravings.

  • Took me a second. I first thought it was about working from home.

    • maybe I should have racked my cider

  • I don't think its the end of the world. Can still taste good even with bits of yeast in there. I'm not an expert but might also be the kind of yeast you put in there. Yeast with lower alcohol tolerance will die off sooner and won't be able to keep going after racking it. Also could cold crash your brew right after bottling and that'll keep the yeast from going crazy.
