GON was not aware he would be discriminated against because of his age. I don't know how one could know know that-but he didn't. So if you are turned down for an opportunity-over 50 years of age-it will be the excuse du jour. Anything but your age.

I agree with the age thing, might make a difference. At my age, I would not hire me either!
Same goes for a person 60+ year old, applying for a 30 year loan on a new house.
How will that pan out? Better have good life insurance. But I guess the lender's can't take that into consideration, but bet your backside that they will.
They will take in to consideration total assets and other factors. By law-in most states debts have to be settled by the estate at time of death. I just took out a truck loan-could have paid cash, but didn't. I'm 67-FICO over 800. Unlike a home (these days) a truck is not an appreciating asset.I agree with the age thing, might make a difference. At my age, I would not hire me either!

OK, cool, so work hard and save for retirement... save a million bucks.
What does that get you? The nursing home could take it all if one unlucky thing hits you just right.
People are afraid that inflation will wipe out what they saved when there's a far more capricious bogeyman.
Why should people play this capitalism game?

I would be willing to bet there may even be some hate filled , brainwashed young men who illegally entered the USA to do some type of terror went and changed their minds. Once they got here and got all the freebies the USA is now giving out to anyone who can jump across the boarders..... They likely said.... "wow, why do that stuff when we can live like Kings compared to the heck holes we came out of?" *******THIS IS NOT POLITICAL******
If your assets outnumber your debt-it's not your kids who will inherit it-it will be paid for-by the administrator of the estate.
If I buy another new trucks three days before I die-and they have to pay it off-there will be plenty to pay off the loan and then some.
Because it's better than the communist game?
Really seriously, work gets you a nice life. AND yes we have some nasty bogeymen. Inflation is just one.

No, if anyone doesn't like a given line of policy they can always vote for a candidate having policy positions closer to their own.
This is America, after all.
Kind of ironic
The cost of rental units is demand, cost of ownership and property taxes, all are skyrocketing. I was taught if you don't make enough money learn things that will improve your value to your current company or to another company that will pay you more. For example Bezos did not become wealthy working at Taco Bell and comming home and watching the Tv and drinking beers and smoking joints with his besties. I do not consider myself that smart but because of family and friends with awesome parents I am OK. If Ican do OK so can most any one else.
This is a perfect example of what happens when you try to take minimum wage, (that was meant to allow teen agers to make a few extra bucks in their spare time), and attempt to make it a, "living wage".
You end up with the highest paid unskilled and unemployed workers in the country. The only thing that's funny about this, is the fact the bulk of them thought it was an, "April Fool's joke". And were actually surprised they got canned.
Perhaps they thought the owner could simply print money like the government.

I got a kick out of the clueless (social justice imitating) female reporter who acts as if she has some legitimate crime to hold the poor owner's feet to the fire over! The poor owner was forced out of his own business. By who? Mis-guided clowns who always think they know what is better for OTHERS. YET they never seem to suffer the disasters they set off to implode upon innocent people who get caught in the aim of those idiots drunk with any hint of power they have.
You will see by the end of the year, these franchise owners will start closing their dining rooms and will only have the drive thru open. They will only have a skeleton staff also. But hey, those 10 employees now are making $20.00 a hour, but just last year the 40 employees were making $15.00 a hour.
Fast food places and MW, land lords and rent control - such price controls have dire consequences - one would think the overlords have some evil intent for the people they are trying to help......
Yep, certain demographic groups are enslaved by handouts. They are just too stupid to realize it.
