I fear retirement is an impossibility seeing as the stock market has become a game for the billionaires to pump and dump en mass

I'm 35. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to retire. I've been taking care of my parents for the past several years because they didn't have the money to retire, either. So all of my retirement savings are going towards their cost-of-living. I imagine a lot of people are going to be in my same boat and we are going to be working well into our 80s.

62! Which is within the year and I am so ready. I’ve done a good job at saving and have a healthy 401k and pension. My advice to any young person is to start as young as you can and increase by 1% each year until your at the max, then stay there. When you max out at pre-tax amount, use the catch up contribution option.

"Ready" or not, I am punching out at 67. I might be able to at 65, but we will see.

The plan is 52. But this will be when I have kids in college so it's still TBD.

60 I'm ready I've invested and saved since my 20s. I don't want to see myself as one of those old people on the train riding to work asleep 70 years old not enjoying anything about life except for getting my next paycheck.

I'm 21, so it's early, but I think I'll get to retire when Earth's core freezes.

Have you ever had to deal with a loud upstairs neighbor? I’ve only seen her once and it’s been over a year but I hear her literally every day. This girl has never taken a ballet class in her life and it sounds like she walks with bowling balls strapped to her feet. I’ll be deep in sleep and REGULARLY get woken up by what sounds like furniture being moved around. How do you approach this? It’s been very negatively affecting my sleep.

It is elementary that the development of a theory is based on completed and finished works or theories with a sufficient basis to be possible. But what were guys like Plato based on? He could only rely on what his mind told him. It must have been very difficult but at the same time, they were very brave in defending their ideas.
