I'm just spitballing. If financial nihilists are going to behave like incels, that's on them, irrespective of causes/excuses.
If someone is told they have a terminal disease, does that person save their money for a future they will never see? No.
so the gossip on Reddit is more valid than real life? You can't base your life on what other people say or do. That is why all those immigrants are running more and more businesses and Canadians are working for them when they can get a job since first dibs go to family. Those immigrants work as many jobs as required to achieve their goals. And no I didn't say that was the solution to youth unemployment. In fact I listed all the handicaps that WASP kids have to circumvent to even get a job including the ones that they or their family have erected or did you do your normal thing and just focus on one line? Your remarks simply raised barriers that might or might not exist, barriers that a little planning can overcome
He's never agreed with anyone.
Sure. The fact it means they spend more on themselves right now has nothing to do with it.
I feel like you may be slightly out of touch with the realities young people are going through. I see it from my generation, I see it from extended family coming up behind me by up to ten years, and I read about it on places like reddit from young people today talking about how they have been handed a bill of goods.
Those darn immigrants, eh?
I literally said I agreed with most of your post minus the one line.
Again, the systemic solution isn't for every kid to become a entrepeneur. Unless the goal is for every 18 year old to open a OF and call it being a entrepeneur.
There is nothing wrong with working two jobs, I see it quite often. Sister in law, went to school for childhood education, works for the school board and then works with children with developmental disabilities after her 9-5. Still nowhere close to being able to afford a house. Or have kids. She's 36.
Self-serving indulgences tend to be causes. What appears to go before tend to be excuses.
People are missing the point, then. Even without divine causes, humanity is not meant to thrive without substantial effort.
Humans, over generations, tend to be largely the same. Every older generation calls the generations that come after them lazy, who couldn't walk uphill both ways to school like they did, who listen to devil music teaching loose values (hi Elvis)
Imagine going through that substantial effort, and still ending up further behind. How long before you give up on that path?
Wait, I thought it was the fault of the young people? Pick a lane.
agreed
