  • This is still a shockingly low number. If you graduate with a bachelors and get a job our of college and contribute to a 401k, you should easily hit 1k saved within a year. If you didn’t go to college and started working at 18, you’ll be making less, but should still be able to save 1k by 22. Even shitty employers have retirement programs, it’s just that most hourly workers won’t take the time to sign up. There’s only one way the median can be 1k, and that’s because at least 40% have $0 saved and the whole system is completely broken for them.





  • This is why the governor’s policy will work well. It let’s drivers stay on the road until they’ve been caught with many infractions. It’s a very different story when you take someone’s license away after a few speeding tickets versus taking their license away after a few speeding tickets, then several months of well-documented continued speeding incidents every time they drove. Losing your license has serious consequences in modern society, but my sympathy for dangerous drivers has a limit.
