Than relatively thriving on a <12,000 dollar per year income. I am around 90% disabled according to Social Insecurity. I only gripe when a wealthy maggot wants a even bigger slice of my meager income. Wealthy maggots do not know how to tie their own shoes. Their trade is theft.

Something is not adding up. You have multiple advanced degrees from Stanford. You have had high powered jobs at major companies. Yet your total income is a social security benefit that is less than $1000.00 per month which is 30 percent less than the average Social Security benefit of $1413.00 per month. Apparently thru all your years of working those high powered jobs you never became vested in a pension plan, never funded a 401K, never set up an IRA and never earned a salary that allowed your Social Security benefits to rise much over the absolute minimum benefit of $848.00 due any retiree who has 30 years of employment credits.
I suppose it is possible that you just invested all your money into growth vehicles and have several million in assets. You could conceivably just be living off a 7 figure cash bank account and not show any income other than your Social Security. But if that is the case, it is pretty disingenuous to claim poverty.
Or maybe, like a lot of people, you just flat didn't plan or save for retirement or made a series of bad decisions, the results of which is your current situation.
