Friend I’m almost 40, been laid off twice and am struggling despite a 20 year old bachelor's degree and working for a Fortune 25 company. I like the other commenter do not have the faith that the market will exist by the time I’m of age to retire, and if it does I fully expect for the goal posts to have shifted to being 10 years later than previous gens and completely out of any reasonable saving I could do and still just survive.

I appreciate your concern and advice but I’m well past believing I’ll get a relaxing end to this life without a major paradigm shift in the way human beings organize ourselves.
