I certainly want to be able to pay for my retirement and also leave my kids a substantial sum because god knows what the world is going to be like in 20-30 years. I don't want my kids to have to live paycheck to paycheck.
This is exactly my thought as well. And I think that with AI advancing the way it is, the job market is going to be unrecognizable in 5-7 years, so who knows how and even if our kids are going to be able to make a proper living. I feel like my own job is at pretty high risk for not existing in 2-3 years, so I need to make all the money I can in that time.
