You're 100% correct. I recently flew with an older dude who said he's willing to sell scope for retirement. I put him on my no-fly list. This same guy who wants millions in retirement is the same guy who owns multiple homes, multiple divorces, 4 kids, etc. He made numerous mistakes in life and I'm the one holding the bag.
I bluntly put in my survey that anything that enhances retirement over scope, pay, and QOL will be a firm no vote from me.
Yes, I'm an entitled millennial who has never "paid his dues". Oh wait, I slummed it at the regionals for over 11 years, barely scraping by. Why is it that you old boomers and Gen Xers only expect us millennials to pay the dues?
