8. What is wrong with owning mutual funds?
Most of us gen xer have no pensions, have no option for a pension, and likely will never get a job that offers a pension.

Thus it is:
a) Walmart greeter + diet of catfood after retirement
b) work until we physically die on the job
c) save and invest on our own.

The idea that wealth is a bad thing or makes the persons a bad person is sad and pathetic.
