Signed a millennial paying into a trash program I’ll likely never see a penny from.

Being 69 years old and retired, I'll return the sentiment. I hope ALL your investments go belly up and you lose every F'n penny that you invest.

Sounds like you might not have invested too much with that sour sentiment and you’re excessively reliant on Uncle Sam?
If my investments go tits up, this country/world will effectively cease to exist, index funds can’t fold, nice try.
Do you really think land outside Auburn is going to zero, nice try.
Thx

Relying on social security is relying on contributions that YOU paid. You make it sound like some sort of government handout. And lol the stock market could absolutely fold. It has before.

I’m almost 40, I’ve paid enough in SS that I’d definitely rather it keep going than just vaporize all the money I’ve contributed over the years, unless the gov will be kind enough to deposit me a check in a 401k of all my contributions.

But that won’t happen. Elon will get more government subsidies and we’ll drop more bombs in the Middle East.
