#17I made it to early social security. After being yeeted out of the workforce by Long Covid in 2020, we almost didn't make it on savings.
It's nowhere near what we wanted our retirement to be, but it beats loosing everything and ending up homeless.

#18AI Over the past year I've revamped my diet, learned to cook, hit fitness prs, helped me make proactive health steps, learned a ton of tech, revamped my living situation, etc. Yes, I do realize that AI is and will cause a lot of bad things and overall might end up as a net negative. But for me personally over the past year, it has by far been more good than bad and had a strong contribution toward my happiness.
I uses AI to help me figure out a multi year long digestion issue that i'd gone to half a dozen doctors for without any success. Gave it all my symptoms and all my bloodwork results and checked in with it everyday about positive and negative results of the things I was trying and kept narrowing it down week by week until we finally landed on the solution.
