Whats your backup plan?

[JL 0513]

We live on about 25%-35% of household income. I could quit today and do nothing and still live exactly the same way as I do now. I would be unable to continue to save as aggressively, but probably have enough to get us to the other side of the ground anyways.

That said, I would pursue other abilities I have.

I'd say enjoy life while you're young enough to enjoy it. Within reason of course. Saving 2/3rd's of your household income may backfire when (not if) the dollar collapses. The country is adding $1 trillion of debt every 1-2 years and it will soon be snowballing much faster as the babyboomer generation suck every last entitlement dollar left.

I feel very bad for the savers in this country. Trying to prepare and be responsible all the while the government is creating an inevitable bust that will leave the dollar far less valuable in the future.

Enjoy a good portion of your fruits now.

I use the diad and its pouch to practice my quick draw skills so that when the zombie Apocalypse happens I'll have a career as hired gun.

Fedex? They look like they hire a few street bums for drivers...lol

I passed a ground clown who was wearing a stained white tank top while driving his truck.

I have a Bachelors degree and even with a degree I don't want to loose this job so my plan is to not screw up.

Yes it is. Anyone that says money can't buy happiness is broke.

Some of the happiest people I have ever met didn't have a pot to piss in.

Ground clown...lol. I saw one last week delivering to a store...walking in with a package in one hand, and eating a sandwich with the other. Like really, you couldn't leave that in your truck for 3 minutes?

Don't need a backup plan; I'll be dead in 10 years.
The gubment can take care of me in the interim.

No ma'am, It's his job to deliver that package.

Oh wait.........Were you making reference to the sandwich?

Following that logic, you must be a billionaire then...

Were you trying to be funny? Try harder...you still got 10 years.

Maybe it was a fish sandwich and he was afraid it would go bad in that hot truck.

Is this thing on? Tough crowd......

Welcome to life at ups. Seems like they spend thousands of dollars hiring you, training you, licensing you, and dressing you for the street. Then they spend every waking moment trying to find a way to fire you. Or overload you, get you out late, get you in a bind so you get hurt.
For most of us, relief started the moment we became eligible for a retirement check and knew no longer would all that hard work be totally wasted if something happened. From that point on, you just kind of coast along one day at a time.

 

[Indecisi0n]

Sell my body.

 

[bleedinbrown58]

Sell my body.

Where would you spend the 15 cents? I hope not all in one place

 

[joeboodog]

Got my 30 in and plan to retire in three years. My back up plan is to work seven more years if my son needs help for school.
