The lion kingdom is surprised the federal workforce, 2/3 of the economy now, still isn't required to get vaccinated.  Most state governments require it.  Lions had to get a tetanus vaccine for a job, long ago.  




Surprised how far the stonk market index can go down, despite the number of stonks in it & how small the percentages are. When everyone buys the same index, the index behaves more like a small cap. Having large stonk positions is the 1st time lions have lost significant net worth despite working.


The Bide has been terrible for lion stonks, despite the indexes being numerically slightly higher. The mane problems are the fear of a future taper, capital gains tax increase, corporate tax increase, 401k contribution tax. The outlook is bad for everyone who doesn't have a pension, while government workers are going to sail through.


When you're young, making enough money to buy anything takes only a couple months.  Lions set goals & filled them in a summer.


When you're old, making enough money to buy anything takes years or decades.  Not sure why this is.  Partly, inflation has made everything many times more expensive than a lion income.  When compared to anything of value, lions probably make no more today than they did at Mcdonalds 30 years ago.  On the other paw, stuff lions need nowadays is a lot more expensive, new cars, housing, retirement.  What they bought 30 years ago, gadgets, is now made from scratch.
