more seniors going bankrupt

Well if old people are so wise why didnt they stock up on bootstraps?

I've considered running some basic online safety courses for seniors. Seems like everyone I know has had an elderly relative get fucked over by a Nigerian prince, they don't have that filter our generation built up, and a lot of things are so simple. That's just one simple thing though, the medical and retirement planning stuff is complicated.

This is honest and true, at least. I do feel for older folks that don't vote this way or who just had bad luck (stagnant wages, bad market hurts retirement savings, etc.) but this is a real take.

By far the most common issue is catastrophic medical expenses.

The only answer that left-wing friends seem to have as a trillion dollar government-run program that will be less reliable than a Circuit City gift card.

What does that have to do with what I said?
