I’ll probably inherit something from my parents (not a whole lot, but probably enough that I could live in moderate comfort by leeching off of people) but I’m not planning on becoming a landleech. I hope I’ll be able to sustain myself into retirement without becoming a landleech but there’s a pretty good chance I won’t and honestly I’m not sure what I’m going to do then, I probably won’t want to die in poverty just so I can tell people “well at least I’m not a landlord”.

I’d give it all up for free in a heartbeat if I had a guarantee I’d have a dignified old age but we just aren’t there yet as a society.
