@jeremyct Gen X & boomers really do be living life blissfully ignorant. You try to talk to them and it leads to them arguing how they had it harder & we’re just too lazy. It’s easier to just “pass the potatoes”.
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

> bullied at boarding school. they call you "Fat Cavill"
> lose 21 lbs for your first film role at 17
> miss Batman. Christian Bale gets it
> miss Bond. Daniel Craig gets it
> miss Superman. Brandon Routh gets it
> they call you the unluckiest man in Hollywood
> Zack Snyder calls. you're playing World of Warcraft
> miss the call
> call back immediately. say you were "saving a life"
> become the first non-American Superman in history
> bench press the entire DC universe
> Netflix offers you The Witcher. you read all the books first
> they take both roles away anyway
Happy 43rd birthday to the most over-qualified man in Hollywood
@milmilksss I think even with the crown it would take incredible planning and allies to help him overthrow Mephistopheles…there’s a reason you don’t hear about him often…
