If you eat 28 lunch 3 times a day every day it will be $30660 per year. $30660 a year will not make you not poor in most of America, so might as well eat well.
$30k extra would make a huge difference, though. I get the point you’re trying to make, but your example is flawed. People shouldn’t have to choose between eating well and not having to work until they die. A more effective way to re-frame this would be “Why does lunch cost $28?”
would make jack fuck. If there is no inflation (lol) and you want to scrounge enough money to have something to just about survive, you can start saving 30k per year right now, and in 53 years you will meet your goal.
The realistic question is “will I be alive in 53 years” and realistic answer for most of us is “what the fuck of course no”. But if you’re a toddler and have some stupid ideas about the existance of the future still, then yeah, you could start asking why does lunch costs $28, or why do you need to not eat now to eat later, shouldn’t be there some smarter system about it.
Sounds like you know fuck all about finance. “If there’s no inflation.” Uh, yeah. That 30k a year is beating inflation by a LOT in any sort of investment.
If you don’t afford yourself good things, and don’t spend any money, you can remove it from the economy so when you’re old and can’t work anymore, you can fight with billionaires to get a portion of that money back so you can afford one instance of medical help.
Who am I kidding, there will be no medical care by the time you retire.

JFC. Are people really this bad at home economics?
That is your retirement right there. Plug those numbers into a retirement calculator.
Was it worth it?
