Super age should go up

[Outsider]

The lucky ones are the Boomers in Auckland who bought a house in the '80's or '90's, and then just lived a boring life. They can sell up and retire somewhere else with a good sum to live off. I know plenty who are doing that. For other Boomers like me, I can sell up and go....nowhere. I never wanted to live in Auckland....and it has been my undoing. Not moaning, but seeing people rewarded for doing nothing, and other people (not me) working hard going nowhere.

Oh dear, that's a massive chip on your shoulder to be carrying around! Sounds as though you have a fixed view of what certain groups are like and nothing is going to change that for you, is it? How about just seeing people as individuals who are all trying their best to succeed in life, or make the best of things, or just living happily in a family?
When I was much younger, I used to sometimes feel jealous if someone seemed to be doing better with not much effort on their part, but then I grew up and realised that everyone has their suffering and grief, losses and health issues. The people I was jealous of just didn't dwell on the bad times but got on with things.

Travel really does broaden the mind, as you see how other people live; some will be doing better than you and others will be having a much harder time.

But what really counts is how you can make your little part of the world better for someone, so that when you reach the end of life you can feel happy with what you have made of that life.
And money is not what counts, I can assure you - it's people, being part of a community and how you make them feel.
