>tfw just graduated as electrical engineering student
>tfw getting bad ass comfy job in Manhattan
>tfw first generation American and I made it

Poorfags should end their lives

no child left behind

god damn i hope that chart is true. im a grubby little dirt boy and in the 10 years i have worked i have never made more than 25k BEFORE taxes in one year. this makes me feel slightly less shitty.

wow, why are you making that little?

He's a millennial.

>TX

It's not wrong. Barely 30k before taxes.

More like "What went right?" If you are a Social Engineer/Globalist.

Stunted mental maturity, crippling debt for useless degrees & a bunch of expendable/useful idiots.

Im considering immigrating desu.

Fuck median stats, why not the mean? This chart is worthless

are you retarded? a few millionaires and the number is fucked with mean

The system is rigged, the only winning move is not to play.

>50k US before taxes

not that impressive lmao, it's actually below the median US income

Sorry guys, previous generations fucked you over.

>rural and suburban retards will defend this

>mfw 23 and already making more than every median state income AT AN CO-OP
can't wait to rule over the trash liberal millennials and make them eat my shit with a smile

At least I should be able to get someone to mow my lawn cheap.

>only making $30k with college degree (millenial small business owner)
>feelsbadman.jpg
>realizes generation is doing WORSE
>ffs seriously?

I no longer know how to feel. I figured most my age (late 20s) were making at least $40k on average, assuming they have a degree. I'm taking low pay to keep more capital in my business for growth. Still feel like a failure. After seeing this, maybe not.

Sure does explain why everyone my age is a bitter lib though.

I worked for the road doing insane and dangerous shit. I busted my ass for 15 hours a day and pulled down 30k after taxes.

Its honestly hard and older generations call us lazy/pussies. Truth is 13 bucks an hour with student loans, rent and a car payment, breaking even after living expenses is just how it is.

So the take from this is that millennials should move to DC and get do nothing government jobs?

>Wages decreasing or at best stagnating while the prices of goods and services continue to climb
Gee, I wonder whats happening.

>Six figure salary

Hahahah fuck yeah I love being the exception

i think 50k is the median household income, although i agree it isn't all that impressive

>tfw Mechanical Engineer to get guarantee higher pay then all these wagecucks.
>haven't got an single response back from any of my applications.
I hate being poor and dependent on my parents.

Same pos, Electrical. Trying to go back to school next year. The issue is that all these businesses think they are too good to take newbies, they surely need someone with experience.

Go back to school. Most places accept grad school as work experience, i.e. PhD is 4 years of works (even though you probably learn a hell of a lot more in those 4 years than 4 years at any job).

It's amazing how Sup Forums is such a hotspot for the world's most successful young males

It's almost like all the reasonable jobs were exported to third world countries so rich fucks could get richer and then not spend any of that money on shit other than gold and diamond encrusted iphone cases, or a 7th mansion, or shitty foreign supercars.

>Going back for your masters
No thats fucking dumb. Stay strong and try to get a job in your field. Not having work experience in your field is worst. Also the fact you can have your employer pay for it while you work is much better. Don't fall for the straight to masters meme.

Good thing the Raise act is coming, it would remove all restrictions on white immigrants.

actually it would just make you look stupider to the employers

>even though you probably learn a hell of a lot more in those 4 years than 4 years at any job
>he actually believes this
W E W

just graduated econ and already make 64k and even more soon. This shit is easy.

I agree Frank, in a different way however. If we had our bread and circuses as well as past generations, we would all be bluepilled normies.

Millenials buy the same things though

>tfw great office job with amazing benefits that pays nearly 3x as much as my state's millennial income
>tfw didn't even have to be a STEM autist, I have a political science degree and a GPA below 3.0 plus I needed 6.5 years to graduate
>tfw all this in spite of my complete lack of connections, networking and social skills
>tfw lucked out by being in the right place at the right time when I applied for a position in a rapidly-growing department with a huge corporation
>tfw could break six figures within 5 years or so
It feels really good to out-earn my peers, especially the ones who worked harder than I did in school or who told me I would never be able to do anything with my shit-tier degree

Job?

Two things.

1. Generation was completely fucked over by shipping manufacturing jobs out of the country, and missed out on education/skills for new industries that sprang up

2. Completely hooked on entertainment, drugs,etc.

Frank... you're manically spamming every thread with your bullshit. It's time to get some help.

fug.
I graduate with a business admin and marketing degree next semester, and I have an internship with comic con right now

I just hope to make 50k in the next five years

That's brazilian-medium-class-tier income, what the fuck burgers

>13 bucks an hour

I made more than that as a fucking burger flipper at in in out while in college.
Harden the fuck up

>>not using a robust statistic
>>shiggydiggy

The fuck? No way those stats are real. Millennials can't be this broke. Either that or half of all millennials are non-white/asian.

Disregard previous post. I am an idiot. I thought this was the mean, not median. Now these numbers make a lot more sense.

>tfw millennial
>tfw only own 4 mansions

Most of them are either a) Not adults b) in college or c) just starting their careers. Nothing has gone wrong just yet, this generation is just still too young to size up in terms of income.

>tfw 28 years old and making 68k base salary + bonus, plus freelance gig for another 3k, live with gf and have a mortgage, and max out 401(k) and roth contributions every year
>and I'm an art major
>living in the Boston area
>doing an job related to my degree

Millennials need to stop fucking whining and apply themselves. Regardless of how much better or worse previous generations had it, who cares? This is you, this is now. Fucking stop whining and buckle down. We live in a time of ridiculous wealth and cheap goods, and yet so many people my age just expect everything to be handed to them without requiring any effort, sacrifice, or self-discipline on their part.

Corporate world doesn't want to hire and doesn't want to pay. "Entry level" positions commonly require years of experience.

flood of shitskins driving down wages, doesn't effect old fuckers but it ruins things for younger folk

Lost traditions, culture, national identity to give people purpose/direction

>poorfag 6 months ago but worked hard and eventually made it
> now all poorfags need to die
Cut your throat.

A lot of that depends on where you live. Most jobs only pay around $10/hr. I've seen jobs that expect a 4 year degree for fucking $15/hr. Usually the higher paying jobs are around money pit cities like Jew York.

i started a business selling websites. screw a job.

pathetic attitude. you dont belong in this country if you really feel that way

>I didn't pay in high school statistics
>I lack the intuition to know why mean is a shit metric for income

a shitty factory i worked at wanted 2 years of college for a fucking position that started at 12 dollars an hour.....LOL. i literally LOLed a tthe fag that interviewed me. i apllied knowing i didnt have the fagogt useless degree. eventually i walked out, got my cdl. i drive local for 18 an hour starting. already up to 19.50 it hasnt even been a year. i shit for an hour a day, read a book+Sup Forums for an hour and still have time to bullshit around. its so fucking gravy

rent being 1500 to 2000 for a fucking shithole, needing 3 roomies to pay it and still cant get ahead. lol. i have a 3600 sq foot house for 900 a month and pull 19.50 an hour with a gravy fucking local driving cdl job.

I have a decent place for 600 a month, car payment is 300 and student loans are 600, paychecks are about 550 a week. That leaves about 500 a month for gas and food.

Just doing the math makes me depressed

I'm in an electrical engineering power distribution job and I don't make all that much. Between taxes, rent, loans, car, and food I only have a couple hundred left over.

How much is a gallon of gas where you live? Around me it's about $2.20 or so. I hope you bought a car with good gpm. Buy meat and shit in bulk on sale, separate it in baggies, and freeze it. I can get 8 thick ass chicken breasts for $10. If you eat rice you can just buy those 20 lbs bags and it will last forever.

There's no way millennials are this broke.

>tfw live in Utah and make 45k a year
>tfw work at a call center though

NEET and hopelessness. I just don't see the point to this society.

lazy socialist bastards want daddy to take care of them forever

57.5k/yr at 23. It ain't so bad being a millennial

If you're not making at least $70,000 a year by 25 I refuse to believe you're white and a male. Either that or you pissed away your early 20's playing video games and fapping. I'm 26, I pull 95k a year. Out of my friends I make the least, all are around my age. Did you retards get a worthless degree or something?

>can't wait to rule over the trash liberal millennials and make them eat my shit with a smile

Actually you'll have to eat their shit in the name of democracy, social justice, etc. Our generation will eat anyone who gets ahead.

600 a month rent yo either live in the hood or you live in some fly over state

I'm 31 and haven't worked a day in my life. I'm also white and male.

You only get a "job" now through nepotism or being a woman or minority.

You obviously don't live in a nigger state. If you're white at all you're at the bottom.

Oh yes, that will show this lazy goy who dont want to work hard to make mr. Noseberg of higher caste of JewSA richer!

No I have a mechanical engineering degree from GATech and near the top of my class. I'm 31 now and have applied to over 1000s of entry level jobs, even offerign to work for free in exchange for experience. Haven't had so much as one interview. The job I have now was through pure luck and I do CAD/CAM work for $7.25 an hour for a small mom and pop. My sister (a C party student) went to GATech too, but in Industrial Engineering (a dumber version of mech engneering) and she got a job right away without even applying and STILL companies are after her and her "talents." She's 26 and makes 100k+ a year already. I'm about 100x the engineer she is and she knows it and constantly calls me for technical advice. I wasted my youth studying like a retard, while everyone else is partying and having fun, thinking it would get me somewhere. It didn't and everyday I feel like giving up and just going off and dying in a ditch.

how does it feel knowing there area buncha lonely female college grads who will happily pay for me to live with them and play vidya all day.

this can't be real, these suckers being cucked for only $20k a year

Nah. Anyone that can't land a job is a victim of their own shortcomings. Y'all can just wither and die, complain or fucking do something until conditions improve.

Here I am making $80k and thought I was doing just ok with no degree.

Fuuuk, these are the fuckers trying to pass socialism to take my money.
If you're a neet and aren't scowering Wikileaks's emails and finding Seth rich's killers fuck you.

I got in good with work ethic and no degree, you just can't be useless.

Appears that most of my gen is

Kys leech

You're a white nigger

Industrial engineer? What type of work does she do? I know commercial engineers and commercial designers who make things like consumer products make good money.

I wish I went that route. If you're an engineer who can make a useful product of some sort with 3D CAD software, do it. Send that shit to china, sell it back to the west at 5 times the cost. You can make bank.

That's my business, but I'm more of an expert in marketing and logistics. The lack of engineering skills is what's holding me back. I would be set if I could do that.

All you engineers need to be more entrepreneurial. That's a great fucking skillset. Stop waiting on an employer to put it to use.

wew that's so fucking funny. The same fags defending free trade and open borders make 20k per year loool

>mfw 24 and already making 6 figures off private equity funds
JUST TRY AND STOP ME

Border Patrol academy in a few months, I'll be making 52k starting and then in 4 years I'll be clearing 100k. Feels good to be American. I did not know millenials were this poor.

>20k monthly
??

it became 2 obvious(such: internet; knowledge @ our fingertips.) that money is a fabrication of any actual meaning; thus making it devoid of any meaning because it was decided by a mortal

just my opinion tho

I thought everyone could easily make over 100k in the US. At least when you're a coder.

Just fucking become a coder

anything 2 do with AI, real estate or investment; will make u more than what u could think of when u were a kid

[pic related]

when 'they' (think) they took over, we make another one

It's true. All my ditsy female cousins have insane corporate jobs. They did go to top tier colleges though - while I went to state and city schools. It's really sad to sit at family events and know you're the most talented person in the room and also the poorest. Tough for a non-connected, non-rich white man these days bruh

how long have you have to work to get to those numbers? I have been coder couple of years in Finland and earn under 50K

>landlords are leeches

hello commie with no understanding of economics!

I made $25k in a year delivering fucking pizzas in a suburban neighborhood. What the fuck are these numbers?

under 50k after several years? shit, I git that after 6 months.

The probably include everybody, not just those who actually work.

>Go to college meme
>Jobs were exported.
>Foreign Labor was imported.

Market finds new equilibrium. Average workers now ask benefits, pensions, profit sharing, bonuses? What are those?

Friend of mine went into Chemical Engineering. Dude is a straight up genius. Advanced math since we were kids. Asian like work and study ethic. He needed a CO-OP to finish off his degree requirements. Went to several events, talked to businesses across three states, even had a referral from a college buddy who graduated earlier who works for a Fortune 100 chemical company. Aced the interview, talked up the rep, and they still choose the minority female C student. All other offers were slave contracts for companies looking for cheap labor. Minimum wage for 50 hour work weeks. Don't hire after co-op is over.

Long story short he has to drive 4 hours daily to a coal plant in Michigan that pays well and whose parent company has ties to the auto and manufacturing industries. Goes to company events. Makes friends with the executives. Has already been asked to come back.

Pays well. Actually trains. Real benefits. None PC workforce. Good shit. But for about a year he had to struggle and wondered if he was going to be stuck in shit tier jobs and a worthless degree.

Keep. Trying.

>Average workers now ask benefits, pensions, profit sharing, bonuses? What are those?

Post WW2 dumbass government regulations on wages caused companies to start offering those instead of wage increases.

Then it became a self serving government/private quasi fascist bureaucracy that will never end.
