The prodigal and the miser




The New Retirement Plan: Save Almost Everything, Spend Virtually Nothing

A group of younger workers, devotees of the FIRE movement, are seeking ways to duck mistakes made by prior generations.

(Headline in the Wall Street Journal)


Never spend another dime,
then retire in quick time.
Young people now think it wiser
to become a grasping miser.
I am old and broke, but hey --
this prodigal enjoys each day!

"Better save for a rainy day."
