>what does he mean by this?
he probably means exactly what he said

Imagine working your entire life then suddenly your whole lifestyle changes. Routine is sanctuary for some people. Ever see the Shawshank Redemption?

I know exactly what he means. My grandparents were "forced" out of work. They are now continually depressed, having fights, and just waiting to die while getting extra depressed when they see they cannot provide for their children anymore.

this

Working, having the same routine all your life, and at old age soddenly stop.

That's a recipe for depression and health problems, unless you hate your job.

Jesus christ, I'd love to retire early

Spend morning daytrading, hitting the gym, going to the beach, Yoga, building Gundam model kits, wrenching on your shitbox, watching pirated movies, exploring abandoned mines and silos, finishing your backlog of video games, building a sikk ass hydroplane

Money actually has very little importance to life. It's just a means to an end

Having no family, and spending all day in an empty home with nothing to do will kill you very quickly in your old age

>oh vey goyim freedom is scary! Work for me your entire life and I'll make you feel safe and comfortable!
Stupid people sure can be convinced of the silliest things.

The man has defined his life by work.

My dad retired last year at age 60 and now he just mopes around at home depressed

This is why it's good to have hobbies outside of work and not making it your whole life

>backlog of video games

What am I reading?
If you are over 25, you're not gonna make it.
I haven't seen a video game in 10+ years...

You should have a fucking reading list backlog or study list backlog, or project backlog FFS.
