I agree. Although I find it very peculiar that my parents could live the life my friend live, but afford children, have saving and yet now have a retirement.

A 30 years old single person with no children an a job that doesn't have a loan or crazy spending habits should not have to choose between savings and pleasures.
- keithpeter 9y agoYup the biggest social change in my generation (I'm 60 soon) was women going out to work. Mysteriously, having two wage earners per family has not actually increased apparent wealth. In fact it has decreased. In UK housing has become much more expensive as a proportion of earnings, and wage rates seem to have declined in real terms.
