Of all generational cohorts, older millennials are most likely to generate enough income to retire comfortably, according to the latest Vanguard Retirement Readiness report.
Specifically, millennials aged 37-41 have the greatest chance of landing a comfortable retirement.
GenX here and I’ll never be able to afford retirement. I’m hoping Carousel is a thing by then.
“Taking matters into their own hands,” as in “considering options for suicide.”
What’s carousel?
Reference to Logan’s Run. Life ends at a certain age so resources are never over consumed.
Capricorn15. Today is LastDay. It is time to renew at Carousel.

Oh, thanks very much.
That shit was kind of disturbing when I was a kid. That shit is kind of disturbing now!
From the movie Logan’s Run. It’s set in the post-Apocalyptic Future and was a way to control the Population. A crystal implanted in your hand would start blinking when you become 30. You then enter the Carousel and try to win your “Renewal”, an extension on your life. If you tried to run away you become a “Runner” and they have a special force track you down and kill you. It’s a good book and movie.

Thanks. It’s been a quarter century since I’ve seen the movie so I guess I forgot the carousel reference.
I think I’ll read the book if I go back to it. I’m looking for a book right now. Maybe I’ll just read Logan’s run. Thanks!

And all the fish, plankton, sea greens and protein from the sea that we can eat!
There’s a drug that permanently destroys the part of your brain that creates empathy. I’m planning to become a cannibal.
Yup. Those retirment seminars are a laugh. Just save more. Dude, my family needs to have a roof over their head and eat.
