[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t be mad because you tried to tout something crappy about a job as a virtue and then had to have it explained to you.[/quote]

I’m not mad. Hopefully the markets don’t crash and disrupt your kid’s retirement plans. Actually, I hope they’re even saving for retirement because 401k balance averages by age group are chronically insufficient.

That’s what the annual gifts and inheritance are for.[/quote]

Hence taking the easy way out. Thanks for making my point. Your grandfather would be so proud.[/quote]

Yeah, he would be, because he worked a hard, crappy job so that the people who came after him wouldn’t have to. He wasn’t a sucker that bought into the idea that hard work and long hours are virtuous.[/quote]

Who said anything about virtue? First you mischaracterize what Epicurus taught, then you substitute virtuous for resilient. Apparently a trust fund can’t furnish intellect, or common sense. [/quote]

Except I didn’t do either of those things.

No one said anything about a trust fund. I get that leaving money to an heir is a foreign concept for you, so I’ll give you a pass on this one.[/quote]
