You missed the part where scammers steal the person's entire retirement savings
interesting way to spell "healthcare system"
Health scam system
"Healthscare system", where nausea brings the same emotion as it does in Project Zomboid
You're missing the spectre of poverty, homelessness, starvation and hardship that's chasing him.
Carrot and stick. But mostly stick.
A friend of mine recently retired. He said that his financial advisor said he was fine to retire at any time, but he was doing easy hybrid remote work and thought to keep working to save up a little more.
While this was happening, he reconnected with an old girlfriend out of state. He’d visit her once a month or so. They made plans for him to move out there once he retired.
He eventually retired and had moved out to be with his girl. After a few months her cancer came back and took her out within a month.
That was maybe 4 months ago. He told me the two biggest regrets he has is not retiring earlier, and not spending more money. It went unspoken that he wanted to have spent more time with his lady.
I’m not one to cry, but taking the train home after that chat had my eyes welled up.
Except you never accumulate enough.
The cash is actually symbolic of debt.
It's missing the ground falling out behind him too. In freedom-land if you stop chasing the money you quickly lose all support.
Capitalism requires the Reserve Army of Labor.

They had earlier retirement ages and lower wealth disparity despite positive growth.
Where all the homies he pushed out of the way? The trampled? The neglected kids?
And let's not forget the spouse! He should be on his third or fourth.
Fuckingcapitalists
should have the bill count taper off as the panels progress
But if you keep chasing you might be able to afford the material possession that grants happiness! All you have to do is pursue wealth at the expense of yourself and others in order to afford it. And remember, you worked hard willingly so you should make others make similar sacrifices to live indoors.
Nonsense. People are happier when they have more money up to a point
Could use a 4th panel, at the bottom, arms hanging, small pile at his feet, looking back.
Someone please do another version but for the third world
Communism is when you collect stones to build a bridge
They build a wall. A great one.
