Trump: An American Dream (2017)

Even if you did manage to retire at 50, that’s unusual in the US (even 20 years ago). With the way the economy has been for the past 25 years, and the fact that wages haven’t really increased (whether entry level/non-degree jobs or not)—- it’s pretty unlikely someone with ANY degree would be able to retire at 50 or 60 years old.
While I’ll agree that there’s far too much political influence (both left and right) in academia, I think studying women’s history and sexuality is a useful thing. Depends on the teacher and school, of course. It also depends on the student. Plenty of people go to school for the sake of learning rather than trying to get a high paying job. Unfortunately, most people simply cannot afford to do either.

I have an 18 year old car. I do all the repair work for my small house and car myself. I have one TV and one computer. That computer is 10 years old and only cost $300 new. I use coupons and wait for sales to stock up. I rarely go out to eat. All the money my equals spent on extras I invested instead. Unlike those in D.C. I understand that it is not just what you make but also what you spend. Think back and recall all the money you wasted in life and then think about where you would be if you had invested it. So yes, it is possible to retire at age 50.
