That I'd never have a calculator in my pocket

That I'd get more conservative as I grew older

People who aren't liberal when they're young have no heart.

People who aren't conservative when they're old have no money.

There are multiple things wrong with this, the most glaring of which is that a conservative with money would lack a heart as well. Conservatism is incompatible with having a heart.
