This "attitude" is too Tony-Robbin-esk for my liking.

In a western country there is always a fall back safety net. It might not be the government. It might be a charity of some kind. Whatever it is, it is there.

Remember too... this "thing" is something most people do eventually get later in life but it is too late for them to do anything with - mostly.

I don't see this "attitude" in older people. In fact, if anything, they become more welfare focused cause they just gots to get their "pension."
