When I was starting out in the late ‘70s, we had this weird idea that we were responsible for our own future.
We started out with hand me down furniture, a worn Toyota, a POS Vega. We seemed to have survived. |

Quote HistoryBoomers are grandparents now, and have been for 2 decades. Participation trophies started in the oughts (2000-2009), so that would be Gen X or Millis that started the participation trophies. You VCels need to get your generations straight so you can blame the right group for your failures. Now go watch some porn and rub one out. |

Most of us aren't into all the social media stuff. I can go out on a date with someone within a few years of my age, and she won't once look at her cell phone while we are out. I was actually surprised a few years ago when I looked for some of the people I knew in high school on social media. I couldn't find anybody on the social webs and only found a few who checked in on the Classmates website. None of my old buddies or girl friends were on any of it. |

First you have to work to get nice things.
You live poor because in your early 20s you are poor. Join the military 2-3yrs get college/tech school money, study, bang college chicks and study more. Make good choices, meet the right girl in your late 20s or 30s and enjoy life and work. When you can afford it have a family and raise them to be better than you. Don't be nice and weak, tell them they are either a hard working cog in the wheel to success or a broken paper in the garbage bin. Your future is work, if you chose the hard challenging path you might can retire early, or just scrape by 40 hours a week until you are too broken to work, get sick and lose what little you have to doctor bills. Or find a niche and make bank and invest said money so you can retire early. |

I agree wages are not keeping up and the prices of houses are crazy.
With that said most 20 something’s screw themselves. They rack up debt to get a worthless degree. Don’t have a real paying job. Can only plan as far as the weekend and what party they are going to or where they are traveling to next. Men are opting out o marriage because women have realistic expectations. |

You might be right about the income, location dependent. But it's $65K that enterprising guy didn't have before just for providing a basic service lotsa young people would consider being beneath them. If that guy builds that business big enough to cover several neighborhoods, he'll eventually have the "actual" $130K or more. Maybe he'll use that business to launch something more lucrative. Bottom line is, his work ethic and humility are what'll help ensure his success. |
