>>19532713>>19532719>>19532727the principal issue here is that boomers somehow have all simultaneously bought into this idea that the apex of what you can do from 65-90 is to move to some cheap shitty hot swamp like florida and live in a single-level ranch in a golf-cart neighborhood, playing golf and drinking on a boat until you gracelessly expire
the bizarre thing is that I've never seen a single boomer successfully do this
>decrepit boat rotting in the driveway>jetski that's never been used>once a year take out the golf clubs to play an 8-hour 18 hole round>rack up credit card debt buying random weird shit like pool floats and first edition civil war history booksthey either sell their home or RM it, and just spend their last ten years alone racking up debt and worthless trinkets that their children will have to fly down and get a dumpster to remove, pissing away liquidity until the only way to handle their passing is to have an estate sale to cover their mountains of debt
The thing that really gets me is how credulous they are. Simultaneously, they'll say:
>you need to pull yourself up by your bootstraps!and
>when I die, you get my Tracker 150, that boat is something else!no, I don't want your leaky shitty fishing boat. I also don't want your retarded coins that you bought at $90 above spot. Your 1996 Buffalo Proof is not worth the 500% premium you paid above melt value.
