@HistorySAZAR Aah reminds me of Dr Ronnie Masilela's narration of the forced removals on the @DavidMashabela podcast. Thanks for sharing ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ
I am 16/17 years shy of retirement age. Unlike those cushioned by an employer pension, I stand almost bare. My savings portfolio is nothing to write home about. Phela as a breadwinner every cent has had to be stretched to the maximum thus leaving little to nothing for savings. I have also not been the most disciplined with money. My retirement annuity is as good as nonexistent. The thought of how much work I still need to put in and money I need to generate in order to protect or cushion myself for retirement is daunting and scarry. What makes it heavier is knowing how little work is going around in the present moment and how shitty the economy is with no prospects of getting better.
To my age mates: how are your preparations for retirement? What is your state of readiness? Are you as unsettled as I am, or have you managed to find footing?
And to the younger ones, whether youโre fortunate enough to be employed or hustling in self-employment. I beg you, start taking these financial matters seriously. Retirement is not a far-off worry for us old people only. The regret of not planning early is unbearable.
@soft_da_rapper@Mpumiln I cleaned for the first time after my mum bought this floorwiz... the mess it made ๐ฉ lapho cleaning was my brother's chore while I should have done the dishes ๐
@Newzroom405 The level of arrogance displayed by this man only serves to validate perpetrators of sexual harassment & even rape. And yes maybe his & Ms Mengo was consensual, but his behaviour only assures that he will do it again without flinching. I pity his wife ๐
@Mmab27 Gurl, I used ALL my screentime to get fit fit fit and eat healthy. It needed a type of focus I've never had. Vitality studying was a side hustle๐ I'm 24kg down and achieved my goal weight a few weeks ago
@SoulFairy3 Whoooah! Soul? Oh my goodness, this is beautiful ๐. Well done ๐๐พ๐๐พ At this stage we going to need even those weight loss tips sana. Knowing you though, one probably has to max the weekly Vitality points bo ma 2100/900 ๐

I know we joke about defrosting and starting work later but I hope we all give our work enough respect, youโre paid for 40 hours a week, I hope you put in the work, even if your day really starts at 10am. Unemployment is too high not to respect work.
@DietitianPalesa Pale you know what's sad about this... that no amount of uncomfortable conversations can deter perverts. Not when they get drugged ๐ by these very perverts, including those that are supposed to protect them ๐๐พ
