It’s the same boring sophomoric observation made by equally boring and vapid people. No shit working at 80 sucks, what does that have to do with this man getting a quarter million dollars in response?

Here’s a news flash for you: nobody forces a fucking 80 year old to do anything, if he really didn’t want to work he would’ve said so.

Looks like he just got a small fortune gifted to him, but don’t let that get in the way of your surface level critique of society. You’re really changing the way you and everyone else repeat the same quips over and over.

The point is he shouldn’t have to rely on the generosity of children. He worked his whole life, retired, and the system fucked him over. It’s not that hard to say we live in a terrible economic system if it values a number over the livelihoods of millions of people

Cool, so what did your comment echoing the same shit as everyone else change? Nothing? I bet that 250k changed a lot for him though.
