First off, let’s do a little fact check. I happen to read A LOT, so I will kindly demolish you ;) According to the Wall Street Cheat Sheet, 57% of American HOUSEHOLDS have less than 25,000 dollars in savings. The odds aren’t in your favor even if you’re studying rocket science buddy. CNN conducted a very well orchestrated survey in which 37% of people said they plan to work until they die simply because retirement is too damn difficult. &Don’t even get me started on social security. So yeah yeah, let’s say you get that rocket science degree and you beat the odds and happily retire at the age of 50. Fantastic! Now you can enjoy your last 20-30 years with a relatively large sum of money, have that beach house in Carmel and drink Lagunitas IPA’s until your beer belly is looking healthy. Amazing! Besides the fact that all you’re doing is bumming around for the rest of your life, and you don’t want to go back to work because let’s face it, how many people with engineers actually are madly in love with their career and not the money that comes with it? Engineering sucks, unless you like it of course. Then there’s me, I like what I do. In fact I truly love it! So much that the thought of retirement makes me cringe, why would I stop taking pictures? My job is such that I look forward to coming to work, imagine that! You know what’s cool too? I get to sell my photographs, which is pretty much like being paid to explore. Here’s another example, what if Quentin Tarantino decided to cash out after Reservoir Dogs, would we ever have Pulp Fiction? Or what if Martin Scorsese “retired” after Raging Bull, would we ever have Taxi Driver or Goodfellas? Yeah, retirement…. Lame&Overrated.
