Until you start playing an MMO and turn it to a new job.
If you retire with no SS, medicare, an insurance that is required to cover you, medicaid to keep the doors open for even a retirement home to care for you, and your 401K is destroyed from the plunging depression that’s on the rise… it might be cool to worry a bit.
I’ll be riding my bike till I feel and die.
I’ve never understood people who get bored in retirement. I looked forward to it from the very start of my career, and now that I am retired I’ve gotten so into hobbies and interests that it feels like there still isn’t enough time for everything.
Yeah, I also have 5 hobbies and many more interests. I am only scared that I don’t have enough energy left in me once I retire.
it’s because they had enjoyable work. not the slave trade were in today.
Oh yeah I forgot, careers were an endlessly fulfilling series of fun exciting tasks. And job interviews were like, “A white male with a college degree? You’re hired!” Everybodty’s ignorant fantasies about the past are staggeringly accurate!
Lol to thinking that it was better. Capitalism was always terrible for normal people.
But many people just don’t have a lot of hobbies. Change is also scary for many people.
Objectively I know millions of people simply go to work, come home, eat dinner, watch TV and go to bed. Repeat until dead. I just personally find it hard to relate to that frame of mind. Maybe they fear retirement would be boring because their lives are already boring and the only stimulation they get is at work - but to me that’s sad to imagine.
Here’s to hoping we still have the physical ability to engage with those hobbies and interests.
Wow… nice.
I’ll restart and 100% stardew valley or die trying. Always wanted to commit to it, never did.
Gaming and smoking a shit ton of weed in retirement is gonna be great… if we still have social security and access to 401k’s at that point lmao
That sounds like what I do now except I have to start at 4:45 instead of when I wake up…
If they cut the system, we’ll get the money in our pay. So at least we can control it. Just don’t spend it on games that will hit your backlog and sit for years. I’m personally guilty btw.

What do you think I plan on doing in my retirement?
Right. Some people update their 401k, in over here updating my back log…only 40 more years until I retire. Or die at 90.
You can start right now. Kill your boss. Quit ya job.
Kinda hard to have the retirement OP is suggesting when you run out of money in a month lol But I get your sentiment
My father is retired and still needs to use PowerPoint. He is very bad at retirement.
Retirement home LAN parties… That’s the dream
Invites all around! Remind me in 20 years.
Dude. Yes.
That’s what I keep going for
Hopefully all your friends are still around
That might be a problem. What friends?
You can make some at true retirement home. Sad part is, our generation isn’t getting any of those, most of us will be working till we drop.
By the time I retire I hope we’re in or moving towards a mix of solarpunk and star trek like utopia
And then you die because a blood clot that formed in your leg came loose and shot up into your brain, because you’ve been sitting for weeks playing videogames.
Get one of those fancy massage chairs to help blood flow
By the time I retire it’ll probably be an omnidirectional treadmill for VR gaming
Worth
Just plug my old ass into the matrix. If I live to see 80 we’ll probably have some kind of full dive VR by that point. Or at least something approaching it.
We will but the interface used to full dive will be used to influence your thoughts and getting you to buy stuff
Jokes on them, I won’t have any money to buy stuff
I will eat a shitton of acid 😆
