Remember the 5 Ps.

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.

Living solely off Social Security means there wasn’t a plan.

I am a young baby boomer. Man, if you haven’t gotten your act together by the time you reach my age…just go move in with your kids.

Ukraine needs more American money to build more monuments to Nazis. Too bad.

Wonder how many in their 50s and financially hurting are suffering from the effects of drugs, divorce, illness, job or family issues. Not everybody leads a charmed life.

Article didn’t seem to mention details, of how people ended up not being able to afford a place to live , at an age when they’re approaching retirement or in retirement.

Theoretically many of these people should have family members to take them in. But they may have burned Bridges with families due to other issues , and so don’t have anywhere to go if they can’t afford the rent.

Brought to you courtesy of all the Obama/Biden and Biden/Harris voters.
The same people who pushed: SHARE THE WEALTH.
So if you are homeless, just go take all their stuff.

Living for Today, usually leads to a nasty Tomorrow.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A "YOUNGER BABY BOOMER" ! !


If "reporting" continues to be purity boolshit, it is OUR DUTY, or mine, at least, to point out the fallacy.

This absolutely stupid article makes no sense about people that did not invest in their future, but paid their way INTO their future, only to learn they did it wrong . . . . . probably because there was no one (a father, for instance) to advise them, or they just plain ignored (or never went to in the first place) the advice that we REAL baby boomers have been trying to say and educate for 30 or more years.

And they face the preference for the comforting of illegals.

I have three questions;
How many of them voted Democrat?
Why didn’t they plan for the future?
Why the fuk do I owe them anything?

The boomers,worried about future homelessness, should exit the country then reenter through the southern border

About being part of a faith community - in contributing money to your church, remember to contribute also to yourself and your own future. A word to the wise.

I suppose at 63 I am one of those younger baby boomers, but I have made some good choices and worked hard for a lot of years to guarantee I will never be homeless or poor.

Lost/sold everything and spent my life savings on medical expenses, plus still another $12k debt with interest. Two pensions allow me to live month by month.

The boomers should have thought about who would be paying for their retirement benefits before shipping those tax paying jobs out of the country.
