When their parents die they will be screwed. No one will hire someone with a large gap of unemployment and they will be old enough to start facing age discrimination. I see a lot of future suicidal depressives. When the safety net is gone, they will literally be worthless to society.

The boomers are the first generation as a whole to work for large amounts of wealth instead of working to support a good family life. They over inflated the housing market and continue to work without retiring, amassing tons of money, draining healthcare, being totally out of shape.

The downside to this is a market where there are more workers than jobs available. When corporations run by boomers are entirely profit driven, obviously cuts are going to be made to jobs. This leaves a decent portion of the work force unable to attain a lucrative field of work==work drop out, unemployment, nonparticipation, and living at home.

It is only going to get worse.... Society keeps allowing wealth to be dispersed to those who produce no service or product, but rather "own" shares of businesses/stocks, etc. The end result is less jobs. It is not sustainable.

Im not some libbie cucktard, this is just the way the USA is set up now. More and more money is being concentrated to the super rich who provide no actual service or value to society. The true producers are getting shafted, aka the middle class.

Thats what wageslaves are for. That big deduction in every check is to pay for the NEETS lifestyle.

I haven't been NEET, I've been doing certifications/courses since I graduated to further my education, but I haven't been working. I did a bit of travelling in this time and also was dealing with some pretty heavy family stuff as my dad got cancer, but I need to do better.

Tomorrow I'm going into a bar/restaurant to hopefully get a job, and I'll be working there full time while I continue to study. Applied to go back to school in the fall so I need to start saving up. Will continue to look for a career job until then but if not, then I have to go back to school.

Life sucks

1/3 of 18-34 year olds live at home.Of this, 1/4 are neither enrolled in school nor working.8.3% of 18-34 year olds living at home don't go to school or work. Of this, how many are disabled?

Title is misleading.

Who is they? Those 2 million neeters could have been future homeowners or tenants in apartments but they save money by being at home. Also my ass, those people are "worthless" Who was helping around the house? Who was mowing the lawn and helping out old mother when she's old?

Meanwhile those old people will start to become desperate when they find out that no one is gonna fork over $500k for a crummy ass house that was built in the over 50 years back.

I'm part of that percentage. I don't work, and I don't go to school, and don't have a college degree.

I've worked on and off tho, going from job to job, but most of those jobs are poverty as fuack. basically unworkable jobs unless your a illegal immigrant who will work for $8/hour with no advancement, or knocked up a bitch and will do anything for money cuz you wanna raise the kid.

basically its cuz jobs are crap, chit is too expensive. hell, for a lot of min wage jobs you end up losing more money than you make lol.

basically the job market is flooded with two kinds of jobs, $8/hour part time jobs with no benefits and no advancements. and then jobs that pay $100k+ but require advanced degrees and legit experience. the problem is their are no jobs in between. The divide between poverty and rich keeps getting bigger.

I'd rather have a fake resume and apply at 500 different places and lie at the interview and hope I get a decent paying job, instead of working a poverty ass $8/hour job. I have like 20 different resumes with different degrees and jobs/skills.
Keep rep trading out of your sig line miss

I live at home but I'm getting my AA degree in May and will try my hand at this chitty job market. The Neeters wouldn't exist if those jobs wouldn't pay so low and cost of living has been relatively so high.
Also, why the fuk should I move out? So I wouldn't be considered a deadbeat loser of society? Who are the true losers these days? The NEETs that stay at home playing advanced video games such as these?



Meanwhile the "non-losers" of society are living paycheck to paycheck trying to stay afloat in this obvious sinking ship. The true losers are property owners as no one wants to fork over $1k a month to live in some crap shack that just been furnished. The true losers are the sloots that put out for lots of dudes only to find out that no one wants to settle and have kids with them when they are >Age25. When they happens, they'll find no one as the NEETers are staying at home playing video games and jacking off towards naughty girls in order to pacify themselves for the day. Those NEETers won't get frustrated on the weekend. The true losers are the baby boomers as social security will be shriveled up as the next generation is barely paying social security taxes because they aren't making enough to be taxed by the government. Not to mention the pensions they are "promised" won't be there as the politicians have screwed them over by using pensions to fund wars. Who are the true losers?


Now for me, this semester is almost over. When that happens, I'll start working 1 day a week at my job which pays me $10.40 since I been there for four years. I won't have school and I'll dedicate my time to play video games, lift weights to be strong as fuk, and read books to enlighten myself.

Scary statistic. Our generation has truly been bamboozled.

When my father was in his late teens and early twenties he earned enough money to:

1. Own a home.
2. Own a new vehicle.
3. Have a wife. A stay at home wife, she didn't have to work.
4. Have several children.

How many of our fellow millennials earn enough money to have those things? Even most of my friends, late millennials, don't have those things.

What has changed since then? Let's take a look:

1. The population of our country has nearly doubled. Not counting people who are here illegally.
2. The Hispanic population has increased from 6 million to 60 million. Again, not counting people who are here illegally.
3. We have entered into trade agreements that screw Americans.

Mass immigration has depressed our labor market to the point where the average millennial working a similar job simply isn't able to afford the same things as prior post-WWII generations. Poor trade deals and the massive shift in manufacturing has added to the pain by moving quality jobs overseas and giving them to foreigners.

That's the reality of the situation that we're in.

It's not the boomers and it's not directly society causing these problems of continued gap between rich and poor.

Its a small group of crooked billionaires who use media and Hollywood to brainwash everyone into thinking it's cool to be criminal, rioting against president trump. Brain dead hipster, tranny drinking gallons of red bull, living off welfare, and voting for crooked politicians, mostly democrats.

did anyone else leave home because they didnt get along w their parents? would honestly contemplate living in my car than living w my mum or my dad. cant be around them for more than a few days without sad memories of my childhood, which wasnt a nice one by any means, being induced.

no thx jeff i'd rather learn to stand on my own two feet, learn to prepare a meal, learn about independence etc, than have to go back living with those fukkers. im not in luxury right now but am still pretty content knowing im completely my own person and making my own way in life. anyone else in the same boat? im 23 btw
