Yes I do no now. Bought a ranch in the middle of nowhere over a year ago.

I was an Intelligence analyst and software dev for the past ~14yrs.

That's the thing. You're too comfortable. You don't realize how close we are to those concerns. I've been to modern war torn countries and 3rd world countries.

Our species hasn't moved that far at all. The internet just makes it seem that way.

If another major country decides to start WWIII or there's a significant nation wide natural disaster we'll be back to killing for food and water in 2 weeks.

Early 30s

I grow my own food and get water from one of my wells. I ride one of my horses to the store from time to time.

Any comforts I do have I worked hard for because I understood that life was about survival.

You got what you did because the systems in place allowed you to have it and were able to afford without having to worry too much about finances.

You cannot tell me that "we're too comfortable" in an economy undergoing inflation while wages have yet to get to a level to sustain people's lives.
