      You are right. I feel sorry for the people who can't do anything about it because they just don't earn enough.
      While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          the majority of my non contractor friends, ie, those who live in the normal world and earn average salaries....

          they are going to be fecked regarding pensions and they know it and there's nothing they can do about it

          still folks the race isn't over yet so for all of us, don't count yer chickens until you get there

              I think it would be wise to start a pension for my little guy now. Then he can take care of me when I get old

                I don't agree. I think you're limiting yourself to possible options.

                I would never say never.
                What happens in General, stays in General.
                You know what they say about assumptions!

                    I don't think taking up geriatric male prostitution will fund your retirement, no matter how much you invest in your 'little guy'.
