It is uncomfortable living through societal changes. I really hated the 1960's and early 70's when I came of age and graduated college into a bad recession, the gas shortage, Vietnam War, drugs and "free love", women's movement, and all the changes in what I thought was "expected" of me by different groups in my life.

I'm retired now so the economy is scary in case something happens to my investments as I wouldn't be able to work due to age and having been out of the workforce so long.
