middle of the night I'm up thinking I gotta maintain a decent job until 67! I'm burnt out as it is. I'll probably get fired here shortly. I'm Willy Loman. nobody's going to hire an old man to sit around and post on CFMB all day.

A position as JORR's butler could be a pretty sweet gig.

You could be his muscle for those unexpectedly contentious grocery shopping trips to Jewel.

if it makes you feel any better im 37 and calculate ill need to work till 60 until i can retire. but that will only be with about $350k in the bank and then wait a few years for SS to kick in and live the gravy train the rest of my life.

It would be a Gentleman's Gentleman.

Remember how mad Mr. French used to get when someone referred to him as a butler. He would puff himself up and say, "I, sir, am not a butler. I am a Gentleman's Gentleman."

In Hatchet's case, "manservant" or "cabana boy" would probably be most appropriate. Definitely not "Gentleman's Gentleman".

$350k won't be enough to retire on and good luck expecting social security to pay out in 2043 the same way it pays out now.

It will. If any administration tries to tell 100 million people that all that money that came off their checks for 40 years means nothing and sorry it's gone .. yea, that will not end well for them.

I recall Sherrod Brown offering a compromise to the other healthcare plans being bandied about - lower the age for Medicare eligibility to 60. The idea seemed sort of appealing. Not a drastic change but one that could help millions wanting to retire but holding on purely for insurance. It would also help the younger workforce to a degree by opening up some higher paying jobs. I would venture that the insurance companies wouldn’t mind losing the upper end of their clientele either. I’m sure there’s reasons against it too but it seems like it would be a reasonable compromise.
