The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 13, 2024

Let Gladys go to work.

But the worst news is that he will go back to work for Rancid company.

Yup, that’s what I did.

It’s 62 I almost died that was 5 years ago

I rarely find clear, useful information on gov site but investorDOTgov is pretty good;

I’d say you never had enough funds to retire if you have to go back to work at any point.

He’s like me, when he dies, he can retire.

I wanted my retirement fund to grow but I couldn’t budge it.

All to true.

Looking up the stats, The Born Loser was created some 58 years ago in 1965.

Which means Brutus is 58 years old so he has 4 more years of work to go. Brutus, now’s the time to ask for a raise so you can even stay retired at age 63!

Retirement is a scary step. Especially if you play the “what if” game, which I’m inclined to do.

Sorry Brutus…A lot of people are in the same boat………………..

Most of us are like that.

Brutus must have it in bitcoin..

Hire Milly out to haunt houses?

Upside is that as long as you are working, you have an excuse to not be at home and being hounded by the wife and more imprtantly, the Ramona Hell Hound. AND you really do need sonething to occupy your retirement time. I work parttime in my teaching and it gives me something to look forward to each week and I still get Christmas and Summer vacations. Maybe you could write a book, your autobiography for instance. I think it would be a best seller……

Don’t tell Gargoyle. Mother’s advice to Gladys will be to get lots of life insurance on Brutus since it’s not beyond the realm of possibility that Rancid will give him a heart attack well before they can share that one madcap year of fun.

Why would Brutus want give up his easy job for retirement at age 62. Had I had his job, I could’ve worked till 70. It was lucky for me, I and my mother had planned for my retirement years. Thanks to her preplanning, I could’ve retired at 58, but chose to work till age 63.

It’s not gonna get any better working for Rancid.

Maybe Gladys can get her job back as a prison guard.

most Americans have not saved for retirement so Brutus is in the norm on that one

Just turned 60. I still got 7-8 years to go. What a DRAG!

Good thing I retired at sixty-three, now I do not have to go back to work.

Loser, I feel for ya!

Go turn on the Brows v Texans game. It will shorten your life expectancy.Less rime to worry about.

i envy brutus being able to retire for that long… ☺

I was waiting for him to say she was going to have to work until 70.

so… work two or more jobs. You’ll be at deaths doorstep faster, but at least someone gets to enjoy your retirement… :J
