I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year.

My Democrat GAO superiors had access to the joint income tax returns that my wife and I filed. I should write a book about how my Democrat GAO superiors used information from the aforesaid against me.

They stressed to the aforesaid a) that I avoided the draft, b) that my wife and I could afford my taking a $20,361/year pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, c) that my wife had good paying jobs, we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, d) that we saved lots of our income and we rapidly paid off our mortgage, e) that we had owned a home in Wheaton since 1978 and had a new home built in Wheaton in 1984, f) that I had owned a new 1972 Corvette since 1971, f) that I bought a 1962 Chevy Impala SS collector car in 1989, g) that I bought a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T collector car in 1994, h) that I could easily afford tuition and books to earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, i) that my wife and I went on short vacations four times a year 1978-1992, following her business trips to luxury golf resorts, j) that my future wife and I were the subjects of a nasty “One Person’s Finances” article in 1978, k) that we bought a new 1978 Chevy Chevette and a new 1978 Olds Delta 88 Royale in 1978, a new 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX in 1989, a new 1993 Ford Thunderbird in 1993, a new 1996 Ford Thunderbird LX in 1995, and a new 1997 Chevy Cavalier in 1996, l) etc.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/fast-forward-look-into-your-future-review-artificially-expedited-aging-11616533877
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This does not include “make more money,” though that would be a good guess: Almost everything that “Fast-Forward” presents as a critical problem for the elderly—including suitable living space and full-time care—can be ameliorated by cash. But the show doesn’t go there. . .“Fast-Forward” is intended to instruct, not just about planning your old age but about what aging will really mean to people, both physically and emotionally. Social isolation, for instance, “can be as harmful to one’s health as a pack of cigarettes a day,” says Joseph Coughlin.)
