I like many have heard this same foolish argument. There is nothing wrong with asking for what will make you happy. Yes many have had their retirement in advance of when they wished and the money that was promised is gone.
But why characterize them as losers? That just keeps pushing the buttons. Everyone wants a Bigger Better Deal whether buying food or getting a GF or mate.
If a person wants to have a multimillionaire for a husband she has that right. If a man rather look outside the US for his GF/Mate he too has that right. Many people are retiring outside the US as their money goes further. Yes socializing is more difficult as one gets older in the US society. For both sexes.
One very important point. Not everyplace has the same values as the US. Everyone is not like you.
