My boomer dad retired at 62.
Full pension.
Paid off house.
Medicare at 65.
Social security at 67.
Told me at Thanksgiving, I just need to be more disciplined with my money,
I make $71,000.
Rent is $1,900.
I have $4,000 in savings.
I didn't say anything.
I passed the rolls.
But here's what i wanted to say:
Your pension was defunded by lobbyists your generation elected.
Your social security is solvent because mine is still paying in.
Your houseis worth $800,000 because mine costs $600,000.
You didn't build differently.
You just got there first.
Rob Ellis & AL Morganti together are infinitely better than the regularly scheduled WIP midday show.
Like getting a Ferrari for the day while your pinto is in the shop again.
Boomers celebrating the fact that they had the chance to purchase gold at $17, a house at $35,000 and paid $250 to go to a 4 year college while still getting handouts from the goverment in 2026
