As a retiree myself, I left the country, and took my multiple pensions, investments, and cash and left the U.S. It is a true sign of a country in decline when the people leave for better places to live. Most other countries love for us to move there. Older people don't need schools, police, firemen, and don't trust politicians. I would just move to another country if there were too many problems. Move again, research, and always have a fall back in mind. Be responsible.

I also have a modest vintage RV if I want to spend a night camping somewhere beautful. I never eat out, and buy everything used. My hobbies are playing the piano, reading, painting and drawing, writing children's stories, rescuing rabbits, and refurbishing items for my little grand-daughter. I only go to free concerts, and other entertainments listed in the local Entertainment magazine. I have managed to stash away enough food and supplies, to last several years for my daughter and family, as well as myself and pets. I also bought a Berkey water purifier and have the means to collect water. I sew, using materials and sundries purchased in thrift stores. I am comfortable, but far from rich.

Going out costs us an avg of $16-18 for one fast-food meal for the two of us. Going to a restaurant costs 2-2½ times our daily food budget, and still the menu fails to stack up against the nutritional value of our eating at home. On a good day, we can find a lunch to share at Hyvee for $9. Where does he get his data from?

Craig Carson The population decrease and career women( through modernization & cultural marxism) defeat the point of supporting a family. That's the other factor of our population where women want to deny having a husband as a breadwinner. I haven't met a girl under 20 that wants to be a homemaker since there's no emphasis on a functioning household and however many lies girls believe about males being entitled to work. It disregards the lack of support guys get that have lead to any school shooting. It's also about continuing progressive credentialism since girls don't normally take on trades.

Craig Carson I don't believe women in the workforce is demand on the standard of living, but a more misandronistic outlook. 1. It started in the eighties when the SoL wasn't the case of necessity. 2. The treatment for programs that put women ill-deservingly "head of the line" from academia and many institutions disincentives meritocracy or a sense of a role. 3. The propagandized contrast where women believe men have everything handed to them, despite any empiricism. In fact, academia is where you pay to pretend to have a job, nowadays. Nobody is proud anymore and we're all waiting for a bus that's never gonna come in terms of satisfying careers. I have walked through a mall where an event sponsored by Barbie is telling young girls to become some sort of professional was the primary message. It's one thing for racial preference is done in the workplace, but I see this as an unrecoverable hit because it will also cause a population decrease like no other. Then Hispanics and/or Sharia law could occupy the West. Also, the women dissatisfied with the immense workloads do nothing but double down on the b.s.

Health insurance is my biggest issue going forward. I remain heavily invested and DIVERSIFIED in the stock markets. Don't think that you need millions.

Great video, I can remember discussing the demographic curve at college in the 1970's. It was understood then that we would have a collapse in the number of workers to finance pensions. Here in the UK we consume too much, but nowhere near US levels. I downsized last and had a dozen large bonfires and filled 36 bin bags for the binmen to collect, gave gardening equipment away for free, yet still had more stuff to get rid of when I moved. I have enough clothes to last the rest of my life. Only need to buy food and replace things as they break. Biggest daily costs are energy. UK demographic curve is about 10 years behind the US, Europe is more like the states, Italy and Spain very bad outlook. Whole villages in Japan have no new births or anyone under 60. UK prosperity peaked in the 1930's again in the 1960's, false dawn in the 1980's under Thatcher and downhill ever since. I am not optimistic for future generations, a return to medieval poverty lies ahead.

pfifo fast, I already did start a business. 2 of them in fact and long, long ago. I do not take jobs, I provide them. If I retire, all these jobs I provide would go away. My people have asked me to please not retire and to take care of myself and stay around for a long time. But even if I did not own these 2 companies, retirement would not be good. All that experience and knowledge would be gone. Even the 20 plus year veterans often come to me with seemingly to them unsolvable problems that together and with my 50 plus years experience we solve. Many years ago, when I was just an apprentice, there was a man working on the same job as me. He was 99 and still going strong. He was able to keep up with us who were still youngsters at that time. We felt so blessed to have him as a coworker and because of his very long career, we learned so much from him. He said his secret to long and happy life was “to just keep on going”. And that is what I am going to do. What prompted me to post was that my take on this video is how difficult it is going to be for most to retire and remain retired. I am just suggesting that with a positive outlook and staying active for as long as possible one can still have a happy life. Hope you’re having a great day!

I disagree with him that people will live longer. Job and business opportunities have dried up, but medical expenses never have dropped. Soon American citizens will not be able to afford health care . Health insurance doesn't even cover expenses anyway. I have met people recently who had the best insurance available, and were stuck with massive bills, soaking up half million dollar retirement accounts. I see life expectancy in Americans decreasing, personally.

There is a real reason why the Baby Boomers did not save enough for retirement. The reason is because the cost of living has skyrocketed and because wages have stagnated over the past 30 to 40 years, leaving these people in a financial bind.T his has crippled their ability to save for retirement.
@jwardTLS6 жыл бұрын
You really believe that? In 1985 the Dow was at roughly 1500 points. A baby boomer hitting their stride in their 30's at that time could easily be a multimillionaire this very moment if they simply didn't borrow to the moon and back. The problem is a debt culture and these idiots taking car payments, big housing payments, credit cards for everything from furniture to TVs to appliances to home repair (most HVAC companies finance furnace replacements for a reason). It has literally nothing to do with cost of living and utterly everything to do with piss poor spending habits. A consistent investment into the markets over the last 35 years of even $200/mo would be worth an insane amount of dollars today. Life choices matter.

With the expansion of "mass media" into everyone's living rooms and cars, the post-WWII generation began to be bombarded and beguiled by radio and TV ads telling them about all the experiences and "good things" they should be wanting / having. Then, we were off and running. Prior to that time, the usual period for credit (if using it at all) was to pay your bills within 30 days. BUT, along with the new mass market radio / television advertising came MasterCard and Visa...and, we all know how the "put it on plastic" craze destroyed the financial common sense of too many.....

I do not agree that it would be cheaper to eat at McDonald's than cook for oneself. Look at the girth of people, especially those who frequent poison outlets like McDonald's. If people eat sensibly and cook meals like stews and hearty soups, that require just a little meat, or no meat at all, this meal can stretch for several meals. Cook from scratch. Make all your own condiments, etc. Your dollars can stretch if you use a little forethought and planning. Eat a lot of raw foods. This doesn't use energy, so you save there as well. Regardless of this, the future does not bode well. Scary.

Pegasi A lot of gen X is still in their prime earning years. Who do you think will bear the brunt of the boomerpocalypse on the front end? With boomers delaying retirement, that delays the gen X career path, which delays the millennial career path, etc. which would be fine if all that means is shifting everything forward, which has already happened to a large extent, with millennials delaying marriage, children, etc. The biggest wildcard is what will happen when the boomer retirement spree really hits its stride. It does mean fewer in the labor market, which you’d think would mean more jobs, more opportunity. But the draw on SS is something the US is not prepared for. The truth is, humans are worse at predicting than pure chance. Might as well toss a coin. Most of any economy is based on human behavior, which is only moderately predictable IN THE AGGREGATE. Individually, it’s almost entirely unpredictable. Beware the fear mongers. There may be speed bumps ahead or a complete catastrophe. Some things are foreseeable. Most things aren’t.

It's now late 2021, and the results are in...Raoul Pal gets an A- on his predictions. He was correct in most of his analysis. The only error is that he seemed to think that the next recession was going to crush Baby Boomers. It did not. It only served to concentrated America's wealth even further into the hands of investors. The Federal Reserve has proven quite effective at propping up the economy (and markets). Asset prices have quickly soared far beyond the already over-priced levels they were at before the 2020 recession, so investors are even wealthier now than before the recession! It seems the Fed is insuring a comfortable retirement for the Boomers, which means trailing generations will have to pick up the tab in the form of weaker returns on their savings/investments.

An entrepreneur having both a western education and Asian upbringing, i suggest people today to re examine a more earth and life friendly framework that may be to not maximize production and economy or wealth, but match the life cycles, and not as individuals only, but have a significant portion plan life based on family life cycles which complement members' lives to each other... Instead of expensive clinic care, many families can take care of elders , elders teach and guide children, instill values like saving instead of spending on unnecessary things, too much on credit. Even when earning well, build your savings, lower taxes spent by government on wars, dont put such high standards and gigantic facilities where not necessary, and rethink driving education costs high largely on topics that teach people to argue instead of produce, etc...
