>In response to me telling him my goal of retiring at age 35

"Well, you shouldn't do that because your health might turn bad later in life and then what are you going to do? Also, you will get much less money from social security if you retire too early."

He just doesn't get it. He's a great person, but he was lucky enough to do a job he loves for almost his entire career so financial independence and escaping the rat race never crossed his mind. 996 and the wage cage were never threats to him.
