My partner and I have reached a point where we hired a financial planner. I told her that I don't expect to retire either because it won't be possible or the world will be so fucked that whatever we might plan today will be massively different. I told her my outlook is bleak and please don't push things that aren't interesting to me. Essentially, I look to her to help make life more comfortable until the day that I die. A comfortable retirement and life of leisure isn't even on the map.

Old enough to have had my older brother buy me adult magazine when I was twelve. Young enough to have been the right age to be online during my teens.
