If you don’t retire with $5M in NW you’re going to the poor house. Or some 3rd world country…Fuelman » 10 Apr 2024, 4:09 pm » wrote: ↑ The times and mindset sure have changed over the years. I was happy to stack hay in the 90 degree heat for $2/hr. In high school and afterwards didn't have the luxury to pass up a job because of their mission statement. Must be nice to have someone else paying the bills while you leasurly seek employment.
This young crowd can think whatever they want, they just better understand the rules of the game haven't changed. You will bust your *** for the next 40-50 years and with some extreme luck maybe end up with a million in assets.
I agree this crowd has one hell of an uphill battle. Especially with this kind of retarded attitude about a corporate mission statement, the schools have successfully brainwashed plenty. Reality will hit them upside the head soon enough.

Yes, there are plenty of weaklings - and they get all the teevee time, so that stupid people will think they represent the entire generation. Gen z-ers inherited your weak **** and have to clean it up. You should show that generation some respect. They're in charge of fixing your mess.
You need to get out of the deep blue areas and see that generation in the real world, tranny supporter - and stop whining at US about what a **** up job YOU did with your kids.

Are any generation Zers parents yet?Mrkelly » 10 Apr 2024, 4:16 pm » wrote: ↑ I don’t know
“ More than half (53%) of Gen Zers would reject a job if the employer’s mission didn’t line up with their socio-political values”
Sounds pretty woke to me

Get your head out of the fake world and into the real world. In the real world, Gen Z-ers have a massive cleanup job to do - and plenty of them seem very much up to the task.
Hard times make hard men - and soft men make hard times.
You made hard times for Gen Z. The least you could do is take your lip off them.

Then there is reality:
My grandkids are 18 and 23. They have had a fairly hard experience so far in life. My step daughter flaked out a while ago and abandoned her kids when they were in school. Big Sis really stepped up and found them shelter and got them through the situation. We tried to get them to come live with us but they didn't want to relocate, all we could do is supply financial support. They made it through and patched everything up and actually are all living together battling the economic difficulties.Cannonpointer » 10 Apr 2024, 7:10 pm » wrote: ↑ They have a hard road ahead - and hard roads make hard men.
I respect Gen Z - as a generation. Individual results may vary.
It's been almost 20 years ago I stated that "$60k will be the new poverty level", we are getting there.LowIQTrash » 11 Apr 2024, 2:28 am » wrote: ↑ If you don’t retire with $5M in NW you’re going to the poor house. Or some 3rd world country…![]()
”Millionaire” was impressive back in like…1985. $5M is the new millionaire.
Here’s MY solution:
Tell Gen Z to take a Time Machine back to the 2000s. Get a **** job doing ANYTHING - mowing lawns, pressure washing, handyman work, etc.
If you must go to college go to community college or trades. DO NOT GO TO A “UNIVERSITY!”
Save EVERY PENNY not going towards the bare necessities and invest in BITCOIN. Buy it when it’s 25 cents. Or a dollar. WHO **** CARES! - just buy it and NEVER sell until you reach your goal (whether it’s $1M, $3M, $5M or more)
Accumulate especially after those sharp and precipitous 70-90% declines.
Now, how to get my hands on a Time Machine…
You’re a quitter and a disgrace. **** you.

Hence the old saw, hard times make hard men, Hard men make good times, good times make soft men, soft men make good times - lather, rinse, repeat.GHETTOBLASTER » 10 Apr 2024, 10:24 pm » wrote: ↑ Oooops....I stand corrected
Regardless, I think each generation since our Greatest Generation gave birth to the Boomers have become progressively weaker and with lower performance standards than it's predecessor.

No ****, if Pugsley managed to make contact ...Pugsley was no longer expected to run out his batted ball. They were more worried about Pugsley's feelings than they were about developing P:ugsley's mind and body.
[[[JWO]]] social engineering anyone...?
This Courtesy Runner BS was going on in late 1980s Little League BB. I assume it is still a thing.
The "Courtesy Runner" [how gay is that for a descriptor..?] was of course the kid who grew up on a farm.....]
Crying and panty dancing again I see, ***.
You've really found a great word to hide behind, puss. You can bitch and moan about what weak kids you raised, and if anyone makes a whisper, you can run your cock park about assuming.nefarious101 » 11 Apr 2024, 5:06 am » wrote: ↑ wow...more asumption....go crybaby...."you got me now!"
Every reality debates what has occurred historically upto this rotation of the planet so far used against honestly adapting to the moment forward from here and anyone not participating in saving humanity will be eliminated regardless which generation gap or ideology they stop pretending not knowing how evolving happens now.Fuelman » 11 Apr 2024, 7:38 am » wrote: ↑ Then there is reality:

There is a self evident sphere of living and a philosophical circle of life shared every generation added where ancestries try to conquer time adapting as reproductively here.
