SO what? That is well below retirement age and life expectancy. MY younger one turns 18 when I will be 58, and I am a single parent. Baring accidents or the severely unexpected (which can happen at any age - plenty of people die in the 30s or 40s) its not a problem.

What is below RA/LE? My comment addressed common financial realities. It applied to every adult age, up to and including death.

okay.

You may be interested to know that parenting can be get much harder than that. ex: I would have loved my difficulty level to be dialed down to Single Parent.

I agree that some folks do experience year after year after year of luck.

I agree that not having life-changing advantage & luck is pretty dang common.

What's not a problem? Taken together, your comment seems to be lacking a subject.

I did the best I could. If you could share which of my points you were responding to, that might help.
