Explain why being a Millennial is difficult

Explain why being a Millennial is difficult.

because you're actually fucking retarded

...

It's not other than hearing bull shit from Boomers and Gen X about this generation balh blah. Boomers destroyed the country and general X destroyed their brains with drugs

How does that make life hard for millennials?

baby boomers need us to work harder than them, with more expensive schooling than them for less pay than them in more expensive houses and cars than them so that we can pay for their promised benefits.

all the while, we're bombarded with more advertising, social media and constant attention-grabbing media and news mentally draining us than they ever had to deal with. we're the opposite of bored. we're overstimulated.

I don't think we necessarily have it harder than any other generation but we definitely don't have it fucking easy.

>We inherited the GenZ debt which has been handed down since the stupid fucks Baby Boomers took over.
>Feminazism runs rampant and is starting to make being born a straight male a kind of crime, thanks again to the Boomers for not killing the fuck outta the hippies.
>As other user pointed, there are many distractions so people that otherwise would be genius act like retards because they spend the day giggling like schoolgirls with their smarthphones.
>There is less jobs available, thanks feminazism and thanks boomers for the shit economy.
>"Just graduate so you could have a better job"... so you could have a 100K USD debt when you graduate in a bullshit career that GenZ invented because they thought it was cool to rip people of their money for learning arts and other bullshitery.

because socialists are now considered liberal.

>"Graduate so you could get a good job"... in a company that doesn't give a single fuck about you and will fire you over menial bullshit, or even worse that you retire and gotta keep working because overinflation and nobody know what the actual fuck to do with economy.
>You don't get to experience good jobs because you aren't qualified for lack of experience in good jobs which you will never get because you never qualify for them. Unless you are son of the manager or owner of the firm.
>Rinse and repeat for pretty much everything else.

Ain't gen z the generation after millennial?

Maybe in Dumbfuckistan, aka 'Murrica.

Socialist is still shit tho. The system relies too much on the people good nature.

So same shit that every generation before us had to deal with?

s

/Thread

yea, here in america the liberals call the socialists "liberals" like its a derogatory term. shit doesn't make any sense.

Not completely sure. Afaik, after vietnam war came the sons of the first generation of single mothers and absent parents Baby Boomers.

Then came Generation X who did all kind of bullshit wars for whatever reason. Then Generation Y who started the addiction on electronic entertainment. Then Generation Z following Limb Bizkit lyric into anarcho-freedom.

Then the Millenials, who are the final result of four generations of single parents and liberation.

I might be off but I don't really care.

it is, dude's probably thinking of gen x

economy's pretty shitty and the social media experiment has turned culture upside down again. The information age is lookling a lot like the birth of postmodernism.

Cause getting angry at everything is tiring trying to play hero.

...

Thanks on that. I'm not an english native speaker, nor from the Land of "Free" so I don't at that generation categories often.

Other Millennials are in charge of culture.
Gen X'ers are in charge of the private sector.
Boomers are in charge of the government.

>CANT WAKE UP

Financially speaking I can't count on social security for retirement, but It's hard to get a job in the IT industry that pays well enough to put aside money for retirement or a 401k, forcing me to go back to school and get another 4 year degree to become a police officer in order to make ends meet, put my student loans on deferment and earn enough to support myself.

Welp, this might explain why the government is ineficcient, the private sector corrupted and entitled, and the culture an feminized shit.

What really bugs me to no end is when people got the idea that retirement was a thing?

Only the wealthy had been able to retire since the industrial age.

Middle classess barely was able to retire in most countries and poor and lower classess work their whole lives.

This is the modern world. We retire now. Stop being autistic.

>implying we can support people being unproductive for 20+ years

Retirement age needs to be 75 at least.

It is hard being a millennial but I think our generation will be remembered later as the 'hero' generation. Sounds stupid but hear me out. We're under far more pressure than our parents and grandparents were at our stage in life. A boomer could attend college paying an average equivalent to four hours a days wage. A millennial requires around 17 hours daily wage to pay for the same education. A boomer could buy a house at 21 years old with a job and a signature. Today it's much more difficult. We are entering the workforce in a period of Great Recession and that will ripple through out our careers making raises and promotions slower and harder to come by. Point is look at your great grandparents. They survived the Great Depression and thrived for decades after. They built the American dream. They were forced to save and wouldn't waste a thing. You all remember grandma hoarding the Tupperware they don't throw shit away. I think history will repeat itself with our generation. Already our generation is saving more and spending less than our parents and grandparents. We're depending less on the banks and credit and more on cold hard cash. Right now it sounds stupid but when your great grandpa was cutting rows of corn by hand at 15 years old no one said look at that kid he's gonna build the greatest country the world has ever seen. Kids today are doing things our parents couldn't or wouldn't. It's a new world and the dames rules don't apply. You tubers for example. Child labor laws don't apply. These kids are busting their asses and earning huge cash. Twenty years from now these same people will be business owners and may actually get out and vote. It's gonna be a hell of a show.

Wow, you're a fucking moron if you believe that bullshit

For fuck sake, don't start the Youtube thing. I hate most of those stupid fucks.

Everything else seems plausible but no on point, by myself, I think the Generation after Z will be the heroes.

Well the youtubers was just one example. I was already rambling I could've listed more

>Retirement age needs to be 75 at least.
Honestly, we need to dismantle social security, and replace it with improved financial education and an expansion of the 401k and IRA systems. Give people the tools to prepare for their own retirement, and get out if the way.

Gen Xer here be me

My point if you fuckers think you are going to graduate from a four year college and make six figures you are delusional. If you are not driven you will be living in moms basement.
Protip- my dad who is a baby boomer went through a similar thing
Stop being cucks and get after it

who the fuck typed this good christ
tupperware rants? have a fucking word

adderal. it's the new coke.

>go home boomer, you're drunk

The world wont do what I want it to do no matter how loudly I cry

Didn't you read the thread? That's exactly what most are arguing. Boomers prepared the Shitstorm for the next generations.

My "peers" are absolute mouth breathers. Other than that it's not so bad.

I would leave that shit nonetheless. It's supposedly used so you could be more productive while being more docile, or something along those lines.

Just to help y'all
Pre WWII - Silent Generation
Post WWII - Baby Boomers
Vietnam - Generation X
Gen X's Kids - Millennials
Post 9/11 - iGen

ok.

Because it's hard to keep an internet connection in the woods.

Our generation is fucked, and GenZ is utterly fucked too.

I felt that graduating college was something you could take pride in, then I felt making a worthy bussiness was something you could take pride in. But godfucking dammit the more I get to know people the more I hate mankind as a whole.

because apparently someone forgot to tell them that once you put something is on the internet, it's impossible to delete it

>iGen
Kek

>Because there is no delete buttom
>Implying you can't walk up to a Internet Cafe and delete it yourself

Serves them right when they have over 5K followers and they are sluts.

Only thing missing is that it would be frowned upon. But well, it's easy pussy.

> we're bombarded with more advertising, social media, and constant attention-grabbing media and news mentally draining us
>we're the opposite of bored, we're overstimulated

Underrated the post

Because I am a chad with hot gf but stil cant relate to most values trends etc of this generation. Mfw I am smart handsome and shit but so often when make new friends end up hating them and think it aint worth it and still hang with my classmates from over 10 years ago

You obviously did not read this thread because I am explaining why millennial's Think they have it so tough. They don't you're lazy as fuck. You don't have any tougher than any other generation. Get some motivation stop being lazy. If you can't ba an hero faggot

Be an hero

I am 1992 fag and I am very happy.I am not americunt though.

> Only thing missing is that it would be frowned upon. But well, it's easy pussy.

What?

Yeah and you are are a poorfag top kek

>I am smart handsome
Only social retard would say something like that.

Because they apparently can't tell the difference between a penis (male) and vagina (female). Aka two genders only. God damn I hate the 2kers

Because Generation X got the last good music.

It's not, if you work harder than everybody else you'll succeed.
If you don't, you won't.

Before anyone asks, I was born in 1996, making me 20.

no, it doesnt work like that.

working hard also means making connections user

ok.

Fuck user carry on do not give up you WILL succeed. Most of these cucks think it happens in one or two years it doesn't. You will rise to the top keep up your game.

It's been working fine for me so far, maybe you should try harder? I'm 20 with my own business, albeit dealing in secondhand goods,
but it pulls in enough money to pay my monthly bills 10 times over and I've done this all on my own, no help from banks or any other sources, all from grafting since I got my first job at 16.
I've spent so much fucking time researching and putting effort into what's popular and what's not that I find I'm doing it even when I'm not "working"
The problem with millenials is that we're a bunch of crybaby pussies that want everything handed to us on a plate, we complain and moan but never get off of our ass to actually achieve what we want.
In time I hope you'll come to understand that.

Forgot to quote you in my last comment but thanks user you've given me some much needed motivation, I hope you succeed in whatever pursuits you choose

... are you autistic or just a union worker...

im 24 and retired. my dad was a plastic engineer, I dont have to work, never have and never will, and I am successful.

have to answer stupid fucking questions all the time

Older people don't understand us. Millenials like to bitch about things.

Millennial is just a term that covers a broad spectrum of people. As a whole, we are misunderstood.

I know a lot of millennials who are successful but just as many are depressed socially awkward fucks.

My millennial experience is that my life is already over. I've pissed away all of my money, I've lost my friends, my girlfriend is dead(long story) and I have nothing motivating me to move on in my life.

I wouldn't constitute that as being successful,
I would suggest leech:

a person who clings to another for personal gain, especially without giving anything in return, and usually with the implication or effect of exhausting the other's resources.

Another problem with millenials, you've just proven what I said before.

lol ok.

Nice counter argument

thanks. it was a success.

no bc tuition was $200 back then. now a good 4 year degree can cost 1000x that

>inherit most of the us debt since ww2, previous generations act like were the ones who ran up the tab
>have to hear the word millenial
>have to deal with other millenials
>constantly told we are shit by the media and previous two generations
>have to deal with other millenials
>housing is absurdly expensive near any decent job market
>nation's infrastructure is crumbling because the previous two generations spent the budget on hookers and blow
>first generation to have less than a 50% chance of making more money than our parents
>american dream is offically dead
>get told we are racist if we don't want to share what little is left with every shit skin and mudslime 'refugee' worldwide
>previous two generations exported as much of the middle class overseas as possible, labor unions are crumbling and losing power
>previous generation is waging a war on free speech but blaming us for it

really the whole thing is a mess.

>Jews did it

Good ol Sup Forums.

I wouldn't really call that a success, but what do you know about success since you've never actually achieved it.
You were handed it on a plate, just like what all millenials expect.

you said it was a good comeback. I would call that a success.

It was obviously sarcasm and you knew it but now you're trying the same on me, good attempt but that's not going to be enough for someone like me.

Be more original.

>that's not going to be enough for someone like me
lol.

I said try harder

lol getting bossy now?

>bossy

How old are you son?

Cant you read?

You're damn straight bitch

both of you just fuck eachother already its 2017

Evidently I can.

come on, how old are you really?

dont you have it right there?

>Already our generation is saving more and spending less than our parents and grandparents. We're depending less on the banks and credit and more on cold hard cash.

I work in a bank
All I can say is lol

>labor unions are crumbling and losing power

Well there's one positive.

I'm actually stupider for reading this thread.
It is simple now to make millions doing nothing
It is harder now than ever to have values and work ethic and succeed.

Take from this what you will.
