And you were getting a third of your income from Social Security, a third of your income from pension plans, which don't really exist anymore. And you had to supplement a third of your income for like six years. That's all you needed.

But if you could find something, like I share a story about my brother-in-law has a friend who's got a job at a software company and he likes to work fine. Like he thinks it's pretty good and he likes his coworkers, you know, He thinks that they're cool people.
