As U.S. retirement savings falter, Jamaica’s reliance on property, family support, and informal income exposes a deeper, more fragile model of financial security in later life
This is such a powerful wake-up call. It’s clear that as the old systems shift, our greatest assets are our faith, our families, and our ability to support one another. We have to keep building our own foundations and looking out for our neighbors. Thank you for shedding light on this we truly must keep on keeping on! ❤️ 🫂🌱I love you brother! 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
I did an intern with Sylbourne Sydial with Facikitatirs for a Better Jamaica. I attended an Economic forum 2009 era, and the professor from the Uni in Jamaica said Kingston was going to be the future Harlem. I personally would love to live there. But ya know Only The most High knows. I still need to make it to the Phillipines so I can see where my heart really is… lol.

Omg my thumb can’t find the write letters. *Facilitators.
There are potential solutions being implemented globally
• The old system promised individual security through employment and ownership
• That system is weakening
• The replacement is collective resilience through shared structures
1. Co-Living as a Long-Term Wealth Strategy (Not a Trend)
2. Multi-Generational Compounds (Modernized Family Systems)
3. Community Land Trusts (Decoupling Housing from Speculation)
4. Cooperative Living + Work Ecosystems
To name a few.
