Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to argue with you sorry for being agro this chit is just very concerning to me and every time I try to bring this up w/ American IRL their eyes just kind of gloss over and they say "wow you sure know a lot about economics" and then change the subject. Just like you, I totally understand the perspective of these people, and that's exactly my point. There is a complete industriousness crisis in the United States right now, and in a country where the constant inflation and expansion of the value of the economy is required in order to prop up the entire financial system, that is giga dangerous.

Because that requires money. Are parents just funding this lifestyle for the 1/3 doing this?

median single is like 33-35k i think

your area could be different but where i am rent is like avg. 2000 so i dont see how you could afford 2k/ month on 30k dollars

This was inevitable.

Baby Boomers and Gen Xers could get a decent job out of high school with no experience, buy a house within a couple of years, start a family, etc.

It was the golden era of buying up housing, building a family, and living comfortably.

Now, kids can leech off the money their parents made all those years. If they're lucky enough to grow up in those families.

The ones that don't get a piece of that family wealth are probably grinding to get a good job. Or they've given up completely and are checking out of society. It's happening to both men and women. No one has the desire to get married or have kids because it's not seen as beneficial. Most people can't even support themselves.

It's all rotten. Who knows what society will be like in 10-20 years.

the system is set up for the rich to take from the poor. the top feeds off of the bottom. i dont see how it's that surprising.

who else makes the rich rich? it's just all the rich making each other rich amiright? could everybody be "rich"?

They get government assistance (food stamps, cash assistance, etc.)

They literally make more staying at home with mom and dad then they would if they got a job at least thats the case in california. I've seen it all of the place. Can't blame them they are just playing the system. But they should be learning a skill and/or going to school in the meantime

Dude all you have to do is literally just apply for jobs every month and sign a piece of paper and bam you have a ton of money to spend. Also parents have internet and xbox game pass is only $15 so there's really no incentive to work for a lot of people.

Pretty sad.

Theres an explosion of demand and a shortage of skilled labor in a lot of sectors, the opportunities are definitely there.


Admittedly, COL increases are ass raping us and definitely outpacing wage growth, and increasing the money supply by 40% in the last 2 years definitely disproportionately benefitted the gov/upper class while the middle and lower class saw marginal wage growth and benefit with massive COL increases

A lot of miscers here make good points with the rot lifestyle. An awesome first world lifestyle is available by not working and living with your parents: xbox game pass, netflix/hbo max, decent food delivered to you, free high quality porn instantaneously. USA is a victim of its own success and wealth.

In the short term, its awesome. A lot of non Americans dream of that lifestyle. Unfortunately, the efficient rotmax theory directly contradicts the lifestyle of pursuing a worthwhile career that makes good money, being a decent enough looking man to get a non slag-beast wife, and voting in/supporting policies that enable the individual rather than the politician/corporation.

Tbh its disgusting, a lot of my friends cheered lockdown mandates since it became socially acceptable to rot 24/7, then are "disgusted at capitalism" when the largest corporations increased their market share and small businesses got rekt and couldn't compete. Now they're shocked again inflation and COL massively increased after lockdowns fukked up our supply chain, the US let Ukraine get invaded, and rampant money printing to counteract the "deadly virus"

Bro why would I work a job for peanuts that a fukking trained monkey could do when I can make more money off playing video games and streaming it?

"Come into the office 5 days a week" for a job where there is absolutely no reason to come in other than to have your boss micromanage you doesn't work for ANYONE much less young people.

COVID lockdowns exposed all of it when leeches were receiving a ridiculous unemployment benefits and free rent moratorium, making more money playing video games than people with actual jobs. You pretty much have to be a masochist cuck to continue working under such unfair conditions.

Men used to be motivated to get a good job to impress girls, but today the dating market is completely fuked up thanks to feminism and Tinder. Women today care more about your height and other genetically-predetermined factors than about your job.

Being an atheist is the new trend (because of mUh sCiEnCe), and when people don't believe in anything other than YOLO and personal greed then why would they want to work and build a good karma if there's no afterlife?

Lastly, the college scam (backed up by the government) that screams at everyone to get a degree and gives fake promises of a success, but when people do graduate they are slapped with a ridiculous entry level requirements, affirmative action quotas, and other bs. Person who put in time and effort in college has no motivation to work in Walmart, and they shouldn't.
Imagine thinking all that bs was true ^

Lmao

Strong over thought

" guys dont wanna earn money to impress girls anymore cuz tinder got the game fked up " lmao

U realize ppl who leach off welfare live like a fkin dog , right?

How about work and provide a decent standard of living for yourself ?

But I thought even liberal states like Cali are far from the average western euro socialist countries.

I don't understand how americans can be neet without parental help.

If you're actually making more money playing vidya and streaming then good for you, if you're just trying to do that and living at home, not working, and not contributing to your parents' ease of life by performing physical labor that their booomerism prevents them from doing, then yeah brah you're just a degenerate (srs).

They can't, not like in the UK. Even NEETs are ashamed of taking mommy and daddy's money though usually so they act like they are just clever and milking the system.

That's a job though, if streaming makes you enough money to get by on its admirable and tbh id love the lifestyle myself. There's a demand and you provide a service to meet that demand.

I don't think successful streamers fall into the NEET category

Even American lower middle class/slightly above poverty quality of living is still some of if not the best in the world.

Your numbers for Florida were 20-30% inflated...I know because I am a 20 something year old in Florida...I dont need to check national averages and make assumptions...I can go to my checking account and see exactly what the price is for these things.

What even is middle class? Who cares...from a finicial standpoint you should be doing everthing in your power to make money so you can aquire assets so later in life you don't have to work at Mcdonalds at age 70. Middle class was a cake walk in the 70's, but things have changed and along with those things that have changed are our expectations of qaulity of life. More cars, expensive meals blah blah blah. I acknoledge the assest aquiring game is rigged with housing and the stock market...but its still a viable option...just harder for those at 40k/year obviouslly.

Shame about your situation...but those are both good skills, keep a positive attitude and a budget and you'll be fine.



Just watched a naked man holding a pvc pipe as a word run from a storage unit property followed by 3 cops into the street trying to get on the bus to get away. He was tackled and arrested in the middle of the street with 20 cars watching at 8 am (ded srs)....thats better than working?



Reality.



I don't see any proof of this...I think its a talking point to distract from the mental health and addiction crisis that is propbably causing unmotivated young men to lay down and rot.
40k is taxed at 20%. Youre right back at making 32k a year lmao.

I also didnt take into account phone bill, cable internet, utilities, clothes for work, maintenance for car, and other things you HAVE to pay for. Theres no single dude making it on 40k and has money to save. He might have nickels to rub together, or he has roommates/lives at home.

You HAVE to be making 50+k in order to make it, and thats living poverty putting all of your savings into retirement. And guess what, the majority of jobs just straight up dont pay 25/hr. According to wsj 73% of jobs pay under 50k.

Anecdotal but in cali during covid the unemployment checks my friend was getting were equivalent to around $40k annually

There was also an eviction moratorium and rent was suspended/deferred for way longer than needed

Also disability is easy to game and can support a rot lifestyle

Lots of ways to NEETmax

This is the other thing that NEET revolution LARPers completely ignore. Your ranks are lousy with coomer scum who don't lift and have no physical skills of any kind. This class of people is not a threat, even if you look at mass shooters, they don't kill a fraction of as many people as they could if they knew what tf they were doing (no psycho).
