Good, get your leisure while you're young and have your life ahead of you.

This whole "sell your body back to society and then maybe you'll get some free time in your old age where you can no longer do much" is such a sick sad joke.

As someone who became disabled in their early 30s, I wish more people understood this.

Don't wait to live your life. You never know if you'll be able to later. I am endlessly grateful for my younger self traveling while I was still able to do so, even if I was broke.
