<prompt> Human: I was speaking with an investment advisor today. I was informed that i should plan for 80 of my current income. Accounting an average of 3 inflation that would be roughly 165,000 per year in 25 years.How can this be sustainable since my wages do not even come close to reflecting inflation? How are we not going to fall into a major depression in the sense of nobody being able to afford to live despite making a current living wage?I dont see the average plumber going from 67k to 165k in 35 years.  <response>: I dont see the average plumber going from 67k to 165k in 35 years.But that is exactly what happens. 35 years ago, 25k was worth the same as 65k now.
