Topic: baby boomers and retirement | |
---|---|
is this financial fiasco a conspiracy to wipe out the average middle class...majority will be in retirement years very soon, and even a market rebound will never recoup these losses..
rich will get richer... middle class is and will be poor and the poor...well DOOMED i am a baby boomer...and i dont see any light out there... so much for the great american dream...EH |

i am amazed that with this (world) crisis. that so little interest in these forums that offer both far right, far left, and some of the wall views, but affects our daily lives and FUTURE.
people seem more interested in their personal and sexual relations than in what world they will have to live in. (profile reviews, etc etc) you talk about self centered, or just plain blind to what the real world out there is about. Or just plan stupid... I cant fiqure it out???? |

Geez Captain, go beam yourself up somewhere!! That would HAVE to be a better place than where you are.
I hear pessimism and disdain for this whole site and everyone on it in those posts. Are they really about the issues? or how you feel about the people here?? |

It's not that I don't have any interest in this subject or the future- i certainly don't care about relationships or sex as im not getting nor do I see any possibility of getting any of that-
its just that me as the Doomed Poor- have no idea what exactly to think, feel or do- My concern is I have been unemployed for over 2 months and how do I support my son? how do i keep a roof over his head and food in his stomach- im in the here and now- i don't see a future-Mine is hopeless. Whoever is elected isn't going to help ME cuz the working or not working poor don't matter. Yeah we know it! We are poor not stupid. Im just sick of hearing about it- its just been total sensory saturation and i don't think im the only one who feels this way- but if i am oh well!!! |

I know exactly what you are talking about.
The friggin market is dropping like a ROCK as I type this. Market has lost over $8 Trillion in a week. My 401 is now a 201. No end in sight. Where the phuque is the bottom! |

sorry to inform you...i am out of work too..thanks to government regulations
i dont see any future for me, let alone take into account my age,,etc... my only bright spot is that i only have to support myself, so as i fade to oblivion no one will ever know, and where i go sure cant be any worse that what is here. and these views are just from opening my eyes, seeing the facts that confront us, and having the right to freedom of expression...(how much longer will that last before we lose it too???) |
