RE: We've Always Been Okay

in Silver Bloggers7 months ago

Jamie tells me not to worry about money so much but I can't help it. I see us getting older and less able to make the money we've been making - and more to the point, I don't want to make the money we've been making because to get it, we have to sacrifice a lot. There's no work life balance in teaching. We're both disillusioned with the system and tired of being overworked.

Having less seems an answer to this, but how much less can one survive on in this climate? How do we prepare for being old, or sick?

As a teacher with no work-life balance and no savings to survive when old or sick, making retirement a dream that only a mooning HIVE or BTC can grant me, I totally get you.

Great story!
