Why millennials blame their financial issues on to the gorvemen and past generation?

[Alwayreckles93]

I've noticed this trend that goes on with the millennials around their 30's they blame the for inflation the government the Generation X the boomers and the silent generation over their bad financial choices. Well I have learn if you want something you guys work hard for it nothing is free. No past generation or the government told you to waste your money in responsibly. I've seen 31 year olds asking their parents for money to pay for their phone bill. I tough once your 18 you must pay everything on your own get a job. People I went to high school have said straight to my face that I got lucky that I don't have to struggle well. There's a choice I made 18 year old myself skip family gatherings , I never went clubbing much less when I turn 21 I skip the bars. This ex friend of mine once she got paid she went out wasted money on clothes the club or bar lather to complain she was broke and how expansive things are. Well the importance of budgeting and no do not blame it on your parents there's budgeting and free financial course at church's , liberties. You can even borrow a financial book at the library no excuse. I've seen millennials buying their Tesla asking mommy and daddy's to help out with their car payments. Redicoules the 30 year olds from the early 2000's the 90's and 80's were smart on their financial investments. The economy is no one's fault but the individual struggling. Why is the millennial generation so bad at becoming responsible adults?

Because things are a lot different and hard than it is now. Back in the days you were able to hustle by selling stuff on the street (I am not talking about drugs) but nowadays you need a permit for everything which makes harder to survive.

Nowadays you have women with tits fake ass and a fake attitude and most guys lose motivation and don't see any point in pursuing that. It was still hard back then, but in terms of affordability things were significantly better.

When the millennials turned 18 they were told by there parents "You're going to college" and college wasn't for a lot them and they ended up cribbing amount of debt or ended up homeless or dead. Now a lot the parents saw what happen to the millennials and they allow there kids to stay in the house longer and don't force them to go to college or kick them because they understand things have changed a lot since they were growing up.

the younger generations are encouraged to pursue trade school other means to support themselves the millennials didn't really have much of a choice.

They were constantly talked down by older generations. But see generation Z is more disrespectful and talks shit to the boomers and older generations. Gen Z is like the Boomer generation that shit about Gen Millennials it's just they are the young version of it.

Most older generations don't complain about millennials anymore because they got abused like crazy so most of them docile and don't talk shit that is why a lot of employers hire them over Gen Z.

You know millennials prepared to poke the sleeping bear of Gen-X? Really?

It's our time. Gen-X are in our fifties now and we invented the concept of FAFO.

If a millennial is broke, it's not Gen-X that caused it. It's their own shitty choices.

Gen-X gets up and walks it off, then starts again - from zero if necessary. Because we grew up seeing hard work pay off. We invented the internet, smart phones and we're the last generation that grew up without them - so we're your last hope for survival if it all goes to shit.

Obviously with a few exceptions. Very few.

My kids grew up watching my wife and me struggle every month to pay the bills. They was angry because they were the only kids in the school that never went to Disneyworld. My wife did not work for 11 years while she stayed home with the kids. We lived on one income. It was a choice we made so our kids were not raised by strangers. They saw how hard we worked and what it took to provide a good home for them. As a result now that they are living on their own they manage money better than a lot of their peers.

[Alwayreckles93]

You and your wife are an excellent 👌 parent to your kids. I am sure the two of you teach them good examples.

@alwayreckles93 Thank you. I have been paying attention to you and I can say the same about you.

[Alwayreckles93]

I seen a lot of day care horror stories on the news. Uhh let's support working dad and the stay at home mom tradition and be a cheapskate for a while until the kids had grown. 👍 I ams ure your kids are thankful to you and your wife on their friends might have gone to Disney land but heaven knows what drama horror their peers went threw with strangers. This one baby sitter would live the child starving and she would eat the kids lunch. Yeah best moms take care of the kids.

[Alwayreckles93]

Thank you for your kind words. 🙏

My oldest finally went to Disneyworld last year with his girlfriend's family. He really hated it. Waiting in lines for hours, the bd food and crowds he told me that he will never go back.
I used to drive past this daycare place on my way to work and i used to see this woman who used to drag her kids kicking and screaming into the place. Our kids are all college graduates with good jobs and living on their own. I have no regrets.

Yes. Individual choices will yield individual outcomes. That said, they got fucked with no lube.

Affordable housing? Nope! Nobody's built any and no one is selling

Retirement? No pension. No company match. No $ to start early and get compound interest.

Jobs? I dare not call it a career. 2008 sub prime mortgage? Pandemic? Health insurance? NOPE Unions? NOPE

Education: Real ad: "Masters degree required. $16.50 an hour". The boomers went for free. X went subsidized. They get NOTHING and price has ballooned 12x!!

Technology: Not even low wage jobs.

The list is endless. They got screwed and THATS why their 30, in mommy's basement, in debt and a mental health crisis.

The blame is on them for not buying Bitcoin.
Easy rich investment they missed out on lol.

[Alwayreckles93]

You are absolutely correct 💯 wow it's nice to see Gen Z actually being more smart then millennials lol

[Astarlessnightsky]

Because it is harder for mellenials and gen-z to buy the same stuff compared to boomers. And mainly due to governments and rich people exploiting the average worker.

[NathanDavis]

you'll never see any generation blaming themselves for a "wrong state" of any situation

especially the ones who just made it here more recently, lol

[Redstang88]

Because times have changed, our buying power has gone to absolute fuck all. I make far more money than my parents ever made combined and can hardly dream of owning a house

Every generation blames the one before

Do you not understand how inflation ruins an economy? Remember how people used to take joyrides in cars because gas was so cheap?
