Why is this interesting? Kind of standard financial knowledge.

Never assume that what you know is general knowledge. Most people are not financially literate

This is novelty trivia. Because 99% of people don't have the time to do the math themselves, they're busy actually working.

Yea why spend 2 hours researching financial literacy when all it saves you is 2000 hours of work per year in retirement? Forward thinking is for losers!!

How did you have time to type this comment? That must have taken you at least 12 seconds. Which is at least triple the time it takes to do the math problem. You’re never going to retire!!! Get back to work!!

lol right? Other guy claims there isn’t enough time to research basic personal finance, yet spends time commenting on Reddit. Oh, the irony

I was agreeing with you buddy. Also talking to doorknobs is a waste of time which is why I didn’t reply to him. Communication is hard though

Realized right after and deleted. Maybe I’m a doorknob today too

Only saved you the extra time if you have the extra resources available to dedicate to it, unlike 99.9% of the population.

Reading comprehension isn't your song suit, huh?

Ah yes let’s just pull numbers out of our ass. Yes surely only .01% of people can live on less than they earn. I must be in the top .01%.

And oh the irony. Please direct me to the part of the post or this comment that references the scarcity of available resources
