'We're only staying together for the kids we hope to have one day.'

Hand in hand walking towards the future

"No, son, I don't know what decisions will be made about your social security. Good night."

"Swings are like life...you have your ups and downs...and then you take a giant jump into the unknown!"

'The reason you're getting resistance to planning for the future is because nobody thinks they'll still be here.'

Where Do You See Yourself Tomorrow?

"I just don't know what to do with myself in that long stretch after college but before social security."

"I must say, that was a very detailed answer to my 'where do you see yourself in five years' question."

'I'm worried about job security and I don't even have a job yet!'

'I see this period of my life as excellent training for the cashless economy of the future I hear so much about!'

"I'm proud of you...you're reaching that age where you're thinking about the future...you're making decisions about your life, what you want to do, what you want to be..."

'When I grow up, I can't decide whether to go into consumer fraud or internet scam.'

Your Best Years/Your Uncertain Future

'Someday all this will be yours.'

"Figures...as soon as I start focusing on my future...I nearly get squashed by the present."

"One year closer to college!"

"I like worrying about the future. I'm so busy I don't regret the past."

"I can't believe school ends in three months! Sometimes I wish it would never end. But I guess endings make you appreciate the present."

"You're buggered."

'I hope you realize Simkins that you have now had the best years of your life...'

"What do I see myself doing in 10 years? Downloading windows 20 on my iphone 18."

"Seriously, Cruz...do you ever wonder where you're going? What your future will be like?"

"What do I want to be when I grow up? See the FAQ page on my website."

"Where do you see me in five years?"

"Forget about my love life. What will the consumer confidence index be?"

"Lost my job - out of money - pandemic - what's next. . . ?"

"Kids say the finniest things."

"I burden you with the national debt, you burden your kids with it, and so on. . ."

The Road to the Future

"Ambitions... to be more ambitious in future."

I am declaring my interest in starting an exploratory committee to look into the possibility of running for the presidency in 2052. Late to the party.

"I think whatever's going to happen next has already happened."
