Was visiting a older gentleman in my family whom I respect. He lives in a very beautiful area and his partner is just the nicest. He’s retired and spends his time fishing.

I was complimenting him and said. ‘You really are a lucky guy.’

he said ‘OH. I hate it when people say that. This was a plan and I worked hard’.

He then told me about how he worked for the same school district for 30 years! And got a pension and spent wisely.

Damn. 30 whole years.
