Every generation has it’s challenges

And the younger ones have an objective, mathematically proven worse version of the challenges than the earlier ones did

Nobody claimed it was ever perfect, only that it’s worse now, which it is

Haha I love it when kids tell me what my life was like.

Back to my original point. No, not everyone who worked 40 hours a week could afford a house.

You can wrap yourself in self pity or you can be resourceful, your choice.

Mate, a smaller percentage of our generation has houses. Wrap ya head around that. No one’s arguing every other generation had a house, that would be idiotic.

And these kids need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and start a small business if they don’t want to be poor, am I right?
