    When we liberate ourselves from wage slavery

    When the natrual progress of mankind stops being artificially blocked by Capitalism.

      Its not the 8% annual money supply growth that is skyrocketing home values via the cantillon effect and devaluing your salary, its “capitalism”.

    For some it comes with age, as they gradually give less and less of a shit. Around 40, maybe? Might stem from a mindset of: “You’ve already thrown me all the curveballs you can, world. You can’t hurt me anymore.”

      As someone who’s reached 45… definitely not. I have way more anxiety, am more easily stressed, and constantly have imposter syndrome and worries I did not have when I was in my 20’s and 30’s. I’m used to some of it, but life now throws me different curveballs. 30’s were probably my best decade thus far concerning the OPs statement.

        Exactly the same for me at 47. It’s like you described my own personal experience.

        My 30s were actually my worst, I think (with the exception of my childhood). When I turned 40, it was almost like flipping a switch, but it also coincided with my son being born a year and a half before that. Of course there are new things to worry about, but it’s different, somehow. Things are much better now. ☺️

          It’s odd for me in that my 20’s and 30’s were full of changes (relationships, moves, kids, job, etc) and by all accounts should have been the more stressful, tumultuous time, but I definitely just cruised right through feeling like I had it together and bouncing from challenge to challenge.

          Now that I’m in my 40’s, I’ve sorted out the big things, I’ve stabilized my life and I’ve got more experience and wisdom… but I’m simultaneously aware of more things I know I can’t solve and that’s much harder to deal with mentally.

    Early 40’s and it gets worse every year… I hate hearing “life gets better as you get older”. I feel like my 30’s were mostly ok, but that sense of everything is wrong only grows each year that goes by. I miss my 20’s and I know I’ll never have as good of a time as I did then. My only hope is that if I make it to retirement, maybe then I can relax a little before I die? I forget what it’s like to not have constant worries.

      Don’t worry, now people in their 20s are feeling the same way. So at least you’re not alone.

      Shit’s fucked

    It only happens when you become insanely wealthy through no actual fault of your own yet think you are a self made billionaire.

    This basically explains Elon Musk.

    Ah! Now I know this one, it usually happens a few months after you shuffle off the mortal coil. Nothing to worry about, it’s a problem that solves itself!

    Other than that, I’m afraid you’re stuck with it - a bit like marriage “till death do us part”.

    I don’t think Millennials will ever reach the same level of financial security that boomers had. It feels like I’m always treading water, only barely able to get by. I never have money to go on vacation, eat out, or buy a car. Everything is so expensive that I’m lucky if I don’t go deeper into debt by the end of the month.
