My dad retired at 59
I will not
He had a pension. I have a 401k I can barely fund.
He bought his house at 28.
I can't touch a down payment at 30.
He paid $90 a month for health insurance. I pay $430.
At dinner he told me I need to be smarter with money.
I nodded.
Didn't tell him his entire life was built on an economy that no longer exists.
Didn't tell him my generation is paying for his Social Security while ours gets gutted.
Didn't tell him the ladder he climbed got pulled up right after him.
Just passed the potatoes.
Make it make sense
DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT JUST HAPPENED AT THE ENHANCED GAMES..
Peter Thiel and Donald Trump Jr. spent millions to create a steroid Olympics.
They promised to "redefine human limits" and put up $25M in prize money.
After 5 hours in Las Vegas, here’s the scoreboard:
- 1 world record (not recognized by anyone)
- Thor Björnsson failed his 515kg deadlift (managed only 475kg)
- olympic sprinter Fred Kerley missed the 100m WR by 0.4s - without even taking drugs
- the only "record" came from a Greek swimmer who finished 5th at Paris 2024. He wore a supersuit banned since 2009 and beat the clean record by just 0.07s
the whole pitch was that drugs would shatter the limits of clean sport.
instead they proved the gap between juiced and clean is now 7 hundredths of a second - in a suit banned 17 years ago.
the only thing they actually proved was how good the clean athletes already are.
You think the Enhanced Games exposed anything or just embarrassed themselves?
Chauncey Billups is the only player in NBA history with a winning record against Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, including the playoffs.
6-4 vs Michael Jordan
24-21 vs Kobe Bryant
22-17 vs LeBron James
MR. BIG SHOT 🔥
