when instead they could've lived a fruitful life by just taking the time to enjoy throughout their youth, their middle age as well by being responsible with their time.
they wasted their time and now in old age they feel entitled to spend all the wealth they've built up on themselves before they expire.
if one wanted to have fun doing something bigger/more expensive... then it's just simply about going through with a choice and a momentary sacrifice of time or money.
making up for what was sacrificed is the being responsible part -- work more, save more, spend less, socialise less, sleep less, etc.
how can housework and not having wives make things harder? adapt to your own circumstances
I raised them both while working part time by managing expenses and working as much as possible when given the opportunity.
There are millions of ways to live but people get caught up in narrow paths and think they can't turn aside.
I wish my parents were more like you.
Not really, working a full day leaves a man too exhausted to do anything more than eat, shower and maybe get in an hour of passive media consumption before going to sleep and any day off is spent getting caught up on chores as well as preparing for the next week, there really is no time.
>if one wanted to have fun doing something bigger/more expensive... then it's just simply about going through with a choice and a momentary sacrifice of time or money.
Normal working class men will never have the time or money to sacrifice on much of anything, and above all it's a break from work and a woman to breed that we crave above all else, both things we'll never get to have.
>making up for what was sacrificed is the being responsible part -- work more, save more, spend less, socialise less, sleep less, etc.
Working more isn't a choice, we work however much or little we're called in for, chances to save money are few and far between and are relatively insubstantial, spending is almost entirely on just being able to survive, we have no means of socializing in the first place, and sleep isn't something we get a choice in either. I typically take hours to fall asleep and wake up poorly rested.
>how can housework and not having wives make things harder? adapt to your own circumstances
"how can more things that need done and nobody to help make things harder?" are you actually retarded?
in your mind, what are you comparing this statement to that you feel you have no time to do anything? this is a matter of time management
i can do the same as you. also i can go out and enjoy nature for a few hours every day if i wanted to. or learn something new. or catch up with friends and family. i spend 10-15mins a day on chores before bed so that i can have entire weekends off. i can tell my boss i want to work more or less at any given time.
> Normal working class men will never have the time or money to sacrifice on much of anything, and above all it's a break from work and a woman to breed that we crave above all else, both things we'll never get to have.
working class men who have no one else but themselves (i.e no wife or family) can live and eat very well - if all you're thinking about is just satisfying needs and consumption. again, what are you comparing this to in your mind?

again what are you thinking that would make an individual drain their income to the point they're struggling to survive? what are you working or what are you doing in your spare time to get poor sleep?
> "how can more things that need done and nobody to help make things harder?" are you actually retarded?
see above. i manage my time with chores so that i'm not bombarded with shit all at once consuming an entire day or more. chores are simply a fact of life -- they must be done. how does that make it hard and unpleasant? you make a mess, you clean up after yourself
people who think they just float through life and at the end get to cash it out on themselves and live well for a final few years, and complain about all the things in life they missed because "they had no choice" --- those people are retarded. 9 times out of 10 when read of people like this it's because they thought they could have it all -- max spending, max lavishness, no compromise, no willingness to make sacrifices but rather bitch about them.
yes life can be a struggle. yes in general things aren't looking good for the collective. but you as an individual can do something about your own circumstances
You're the only one to point this out. According to the survey, Millennials and Gen X have the same aspirations to share their wealth when they're older, but they haven't been through the same experience their boomer parents and grandparents have. It's really frightening to be old, having medical issues, and have to worry about money in the last decade or two of your life. The younger generations may re-evaluation their desire to share their wealth, if they have any, with their family when they're still alive.
However, I condemn the fucking boomers who take multiple expensive trips, but RVs to travel, and do other wasteful things with their money in their retirement. Their priority should be their families, the younger generations, and forming a strong relationship with them.
