I asked wtf is the point of a pension when you’ve been broke AF the entire time leading up to it? Can’t afford to buy anything, live a life doing nothing in terms of travel etc. so you can MAYBE get 50k a year when you retire? That barely covers your rent for 3 decades of work lol.
65k a year is an average salary in Canada. Combined with a guaranteed pension he's actually doing pretty well.
