It's not fair that old people's savings all end up going to healthcare and aged care. Gramps is spending $100k just to be kept alive for one more week. The fuck? It should go to me.
>>61055305Just invest in healthcare retard
>>61055305>It should go to methis, but unironically
>>61055310I buy healthcare so some guido can assassinate the CEO and I lose 90% of my investment? Fuck that
>>61055326hedge by investing in protection services for CEOs
Hahaha get fucked, should have chosen your career more wisely. T. A doctor
>>61055540You will also be replaced with chatgpt
>>61055548Lmao cope, that’s retarded levels of negativity.
>>61055552We're heading the way of idiocracy, the doctors there did nothing and relied everything on what equates to AI. They just guessed and pressed a button that has a picture of what they think the problem is. Not really far from reality now, I was at the doctors and I literally saw my doctor Google my symptoms.
>>61055652Why wouldn’t a doctor use google and other databases? No matter how good your memory is, it doesn’t beat the memory of a machine. Better to spend the time and energy on examining the patient, mixing that with known data and getting experience from all that. Medicine is full of little variations that you only get from experience and/or professors tell you about it.
This is ultimately what's going to happen, particularly in single payer/socialized healthcare states. We're Godless now, so there's no moral imperative to just... keep people alive forever. Budgets are going to keep getting progressively strained and bureaucracies bloated to boot. Fat will need to be trimmed. And so... no more advanced healthcare keeping people over the age of 80 alive. You either make it or you don't. One way or another boomz are going to get what they deserve.
>>61055305This happened to my grandmother in law. She was going to die in a matter of days due to her cancer, but she had a stomach blockage as well that was going to kill her that night. Spent tens of thousands of dollars to fix the stomach. She was like 90.It seems like it would be very hard to deny the treatment if I was in the position myself, despite the fact that I am essentially sacrificing my life right now to hopefully leave money for my kids. Will to survive/fear of death is too embedded. Stupid.
>>61056573It's a pretty scary thing. It's like we have too many options now and people are delusional about it, blowing $100k for that 1% chance they might live another month. This isn't how life is supposed to work, blowing the legacy/inheritances of the next generation away at the last moment in a vain attempt at immortality.
People are now living longer than ever, but what happens is that end-of-life care/nursing homes aren’t covered by insurance. So that $2m nest egg that grandpa had gets drained over 3-4 years, and only then does Medicare coverage kick in. Decades of saving and wealth-building totally vanishes.I’m saving up a lot of money. Not for myself, but the family I’ll have. I will put myself in the suicide pod before I allow myself to deteriorate over a few years in a hospital bed and leave my family worse-off.
Boomers are decadent and godless people and as such are terrified of death.its why we all locked down over a boomer flu. A true human being would never blow their childrens inheritance on prolonging their sad life by a few years. They would hand everything away before they died and see with their own eyes the good it does for their children.
>>61056470The far future is going to be similar to that show Altered Carbon. Basically, people will be able to stay alive forever… if you can afford it. Other people get their “stack”, or digitized consciousness, placed on a dusty shelf forever. So right now, there are deeply unequal outcomes on lifespan depending on whether you’re rich or poor. And this is going to expand further.
