Probably never going to retire, can't afford it and I probably won't live that long. I have retirement accounts but they're more of long term savings for emergency needs. No way I'd be able to save up the tens of thousands of dollars I'd need to catch up even if I got a higher paying job.

I feel this. been unemployed for two years now and older. Can't wait to be berated for not saving enough for retirement. Its really getting to a why bother point or really past it.
