Question

“You only live once” is a saying that has been around for over a century, but Drake is responsible for its popularity today. While it’s hard to argue with the logic behind YOLO when it comes to tasting a new food or taking that road trip, YOLO isn’t always the wisest anthem. Why? Because you live a long time. Sure, you want to have interesting experiences now, but you also want to be happy and comfortable later in life. If you only live for “now,” you won’t be prepared for “later.” A lot of what it means to be “happy and comfortable later in life” requires money. When you are 20 years old, it might be fun to share a small apartment with friends. But when you are your parents’ age, you probably want your own place. The good news is that money grows over time if it’s invested well. If you do some planning and saving early in life, you might find that by the time you’re ready to retire, you’ve become a millionaire. If you don’t, you might find that instead of retiring, you have to keep working because you don’t have enough money to live on.
The author of this passage most likely believes that...

(A) you should always live only for “now.”

(B) retirement isn’t that great.

(C) planning for the future is important.

(D) money can never grow no matter how you invest it.
