"In fact! [Opens wallet] Hey Mac, now that you've announced your IPA I think I'd like to get in on the action and invest a little, what do ya' say? How many shares you got and what's your ask?"

"That's where you're wrong, Deandra. Corporations are people, an' they got a right to own property, votes, and elected officials as much as anybody else! So I say if Mac wants to dedicate himself to generating profit for his shareholders then that's his right and I'm not gonna stand by while you try 'an take it from 'em!"

Part of it is because you still need a gig to keep the retirement funds rolling. You don't want to live it out on pea soup and bread.

Part of it is because after a certain point every bit of your body, from your bones to your brains, is only available on a Use It or Lose It basis with no warranty for service blackouts.

And part of it is because, and l guess this is due to the collapse of the extended-family model, lots of people don't have anyone or thing to go home to; they're divorced or widowed, kids have moved out, and their social network has literally died out.

Towards the end of his life my father only had ONE surviving peer from grade school. Imagine how it is to call your only surviving friend on a regular basis and to wonder, each time, if today's the day you learn you've already heard their voice for the last time.
