Why are millennials so dependent on their parents?

Real wages have been flat for decades while insurance, house prices, etc have gotten more expensive

Also extended coddling into adulthood

Overpopulation?

we're fucking broke

Excessive coddling as a child

wages have not kept up with cost of living.
good middle class jobs that have a low skill level are gone and are not coming back.
their parents/granparents spent the 80/90s trying to coddle them from the real world.

Horrible economy, crippling student loans, wage stagnation, no jobs, pressured to pursue useless degrees, excessive babying and safe space mentality

why don't you get a job you actually like instead of spending time with people you resent?

There is literally nothing wrong with the Nintendo switch

This really makes me think but i think the coddling part only applies to white people. Nigs moms are emotionally invested in their offspring but they pretty much allow them to do their own thing while although spics are very close to their families they pretty much operate as a socialist family unit while remaining independent.

You try living off of $7.25 an hour

I can't speak for why millennial females are so bad, but men are in the sad state they are because of the ADHD scam in the 90s. Liberal, female teachers, with the guidance of liberal female Cultural Marxist psychologists saw to it that young boys behaving boisterously (common young boy behavior) were subjected to hard psychotropic personality altering drugs throughout their childhood. Ritalin and Adderall of the 90s were not like they are today, they were strong fucking drugs that totally changed behavior, my folks put me on Ritalin at age 5 at the suggestion of my school teachers and guidance counselors, by age 6 they dumped the pills down the toilet and said never again when they saw the effect those medications had.

How many of these young men weren't taken off the drugs by their folks until their late teens when they could choose for themselves? All just for acting how a fucking boy is supposed to act at that age. We literally fucked up the personalities of millions of boys and turned them into numale cucks.

because they have all the money obviously

They were brainwashed into le 'follow your dreams xD' meme and lured into the cities where they can barely afford rent and pay is just as bad as everywhere else.
Also they are the first generation whose parents weren't teachers to them but friends. I'm so glad my parents were born in the 50's so I wasn't raised to become some nu male faggot.

You should follow your dreams pussy, or at the very least try to. The thing is the meme leaves out that you should while you should follow your dreams you should be aware that you have to put in the work, have the talent and determination to accomplish your goals. Millennials expect their dreams to just knock on their door or think they're putting in work when in reality they're having fun and fucking around.

>Moving in with 2 friends
>Got a job at a Marriott hotel in events management
>Option to move abroad after a year

Wew lads. A lot of my age group in the UK want to move out before 25.

I think its a little of both. For the middle / upper classes its coddling that pussifies millennials while the lower class suffers from limited space / resources making it more difficult to advance.

>tfw when 26 and living with parents
Kill me.

Get a fucking job. Get motivation. If you can get a job that pays $1000 a month you could easily find a place of your own.

Same here
>Unemployed for 2 years with a college degree
>Literally unemployable due to unemployment gap, as told after 100+ interviews
>Overqualified for any low-level job
>Everything else requires a car

There is no hope.

>Find a place of your own
>$1000 a month

kek

The housing market in England is worse than the US and I got a 3 bedroom flat for £1000 a month.

Fucking step it up.

Even if that wasn't unrealistic as fuck, you are literally living hand-to-mouth in that scenario. All your money goes to the bare necessities, and you have no time or extra money for anything that y'know... makes life worth living.

3 bedroom apartments are $4000 here

Because we are broke

>Flat for £333 a month pp
>£1500 pay check for the first 4 months
>£500 in savings.

Guess how much I have let per month?

Just stop being fucking lazy. You're making excuses as to why you can't move out.

Gimme gimme chicken tendies be they crispy or from Wendy's

This thinking is why millenials won't move out.
>You mean I have to buy my own health insurance, pay rent, and spend money on things I take for granted supplied by my parents?! I won't have any money for that new videogame, jordan's, and craft beer!
At a certain point you have grow up and work just to live, if you get good at what you do, you will *earn* enough to get these luxuries you refer to as "reasons to live".
Otherwise keep living with your parents or 4 other roommates, I hear that new bar just opened up and drinks start at $8!

You also have utilities, insurance, food, fuel/fare, etc to pay for, not to mention needing to have extra on hand in case of something unforeseen.

God help you if you have debt you're paying down.

Confirmed for faggot who has never lived on his own.

our economy has been swirling sown the toilet since reaganomics was reversed.

personally i could move out and get an apartment of my own since i am employed with a decent job. but living at home means i can save so much more money.

>Flat for £333 a month pp
Where, in fucking Cumbria?
> £1500 pay check for the first 4 months
For four months work? Yeah, Cumbria then.

>People "just" getting a job

Where do these jobs magically come from?

Because they are pussies that are lazy.

>moved back in with my mum 2 years ago while my gf goes back to Uni
>mfw she's financially dependent on me

I give her £200 every month and probably more than that again throughout the month. I gave her £50 yesterday and she has nothing left now and she barely leaves the fucking house, I have no idea how she could have even spent it. She's like a child. My girlfriend graduates next year so we'll be moving in together again. I can't wait.

>At a certain point you have grow up and work just to live, if you get good at what you do, you will *earn* enough to get these luxuries
When the only job available to you is Wal Mart, where their management is literally briefed to make you as miserable as possible so you'll quit and they can hire cheaper newbies to replace you?

Do you fucking realize how badly the deck is stacked?

You idiots claiming it's so easy probably had your parents paying your rent, or got a free ride through school and had a cushy job waiting for you on the other end. If I'd had even a fraction of the help you did, my life would be exponentially better than it is now.

Cut the fucking shit faggot.

>Live with parents and brothers
>Brother's wife also lives with us, is pregnant
>Everyone works
>Living a comfortable middle class life
>Parents are completely fine with us living with them, no anglo "as soon as you're 18 you HAVE TO FIND A PLACE TO LIVE ON YOUR OWN" insanity

feels good being a third worlder brah

>Utilities £100 split these ways
>Insurance included with flat
>Food £20 pw
>What is a bike.

No £1500 every month for the first four months.

>Because things aren't as easy for me, I don't have to try! Gibs me dat doe!

You need to treat finding a job as a full time job, especially if you have little or no experience. It's hard, it's disheartening, but it's very possible. Apply for everything, apply for the same job multiple times via different job websites and don't give up. The law of averages will eventually work in your favour.

KeK, i have job and it may sound off but im also confident and charmastic as fuck, i notice a lot of women lick their lips abd have dilated pupils when i talk to them and people at my job look up to me. Its just hard to find an affordable apartment in California. Also my car got fucked up and i didnt have full coverage so i gotta get a new one. Again i fucking hate it but with my salary im kind of limited.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

STOP RESPONDING TO THESE BOT THREADS YOU STUPID KEKS

I was going to move out and live on my own, by the price of oil dropped and I lost my job

>i notice a lot of women lick their lips abd have dilated pupils when i talk to them

Are you sure they're not having a stroke?

Of course I don't. It's not like I didn't research and figure shit out.

Stop being a lazy fucking bastard.

Our parents outsourced everything to make gains on their portfolios. If you don't have rich boomer parents your whole lineage is fucked

>inflated housing market, virtual necessity on expensive higher education, and proportionately reduced wages all created by Gen X and Boomers with no sense of financial responsibility

>blame Millennials

If you did research you'd know that different places have different circumstances. Some of us live in places where you can't get anywhere without a car. Some of us don't have our health insurance paid for by Mama Merkel (I assume that's how it works there). Some of us were dealt a bad hand and seeing idiots who have never been poor lecture us about our moral failings is irritating as shit.

I know you're just trolling, but far too many people sincerely believe the crap your laying out. I'm not sure if it's just the normal boomer "we did nothing wrong" mentality or fanatical anarcho-capitalist molymeme internet philosopher bullshit, but it's stupid as hell.

Thread theme

youtube.com/watch?v=8VqJGRHuKUE

capitalism. someone wants something...someone else figures out how to get said something to said someone. $$$$

I have lived poor. My household income is under £20,000 per annum and I lived with my single dad and brother.

So no I'm not trolling. I've built my own success. Instead of crying that life's unfair go out and make a living. You're worse than the left

-College tuition is outrageously high because of fucking handegg
-Bachelor's degree no longer guarantees good job right off the bat, need a masters for that shit

-Overpopulation
-A lot of Baby Boomers and Gen X are still working and hold most of the jobs
-Can't get in anywhere unless you have experience, aka not a new grad, aka not millennial

-cost of living has gone up significantly more than minimum wage, which is what a lot of Millennials have to turn to since you cant get into decent jobs very easily

t. Millennial with a bachelor's degree in Marketing who is currently working two jobs just to live.

The worst is when parents claim I'm not "trying hard enough" and how "they could pay for college completely with a part time job". Not to mention, I originally wanted to go into Computer Science but they convinced me to go into marketing because "business degrees are versatile and can get you so many opportunities". Least I'm trying to get my computer cert now.

>tfw 20 years old
>tfw making $6k a month
>tfw living comfortably on my own

I love how you constantly pull numbers out of your ass to justify things while ignoring other obviously pertinent details. It's a huge tell for being full of shit.

Are you a drug dealer?

> 4%, 5%, up to 10% price inflation
> taxes rise
> low income employment rampant
> wages stagnant

Gee, I wonder why!
> be me 2000
> earn 15€ an hour as a student
> EZ game EZ life
> rent a flat
> pay bills and taxes
> brutto 2.800

now let's assume a Millenial, shall we?
> be him

> earn 10€ an hour as a student
> after taxes etc 1.300
> after rent 500
> after food 300 leftover for "fun"

For most people, in real life, university students, low income wageslaves,
you can easily assume that they effectively keep over half or less than half of what they used to keep over.
> public train/busride 2000: 1,50
> adjusts like 5% each year
> public train/busride 2015: 2,80
> Kebab 2000: 3,00
> Kebab 2015: 5,00
> cinema ticket 2000: 7,00
> cinema ticket 2015: 12,00+
> whole milk 2000: 1,00
> whole milk 1015: 1,80

And of what they keep over ,being forced in low wages labour,
they can buy significantly less.

Geeeez I wonder.

Maybe it is that it makes economical sense to save rent?
Maaaaaaaaybeeee?

Now take Germany. the German Public is BLEEDING Money. they don't own houses or flats ( in southern europe they DO ), they can't afford to. they live for Rent. Most everybody except wealthy shits like me ( my mum died when I was like 20 from fucking cancer and I got to inherit a house jointly with my brother. So I actually own where I live - cuz I got lucky! Would I have to rent a house of same proportions I WOULD not make enough money to even pay the rent on this place! )

So in places like Germany and the US: People live with their parents.
It's a necessity almost.

Fuck following your dreams man, my parents pushed me to do that and i ended up studying art and now work a shit minimum wage job. I wish they had been more realistic and encouraged me to study STEM or learn a trade and have actual marketable skills.

>Pulling numbers out of my ass
Why the fuck would I lie on an anonymous image board?

Sorry that I've made you realise you're a lazy piece of shit.

>what is a backup career

Nothing worth living. Waiting for the slow inevitable end of my life, perhaps prematurely.
Or after I suffered 60 years of uselessness.
When finally a brain aneurysm or my shit evil heart finally dies.

>diagnosed with adhd at 5
>took all sorts of pills from ages 5 to 13
>side effects only i noticed were lack of sleeping, eating, and motivation
>become cynical piece of shit
>still can't focus properly
did i get the short end of the stick on all fronts?

I wouldn't have gone to university if I knew that it would lead to me being homeless for a month and having to move back in with my parents.

I was rejected by the military and now I'm applying to entry level factory jobs. No call backs yet. My friends who didn't go to college are now married and make more money than I could hope to at the jobs I'm applying to.

I couldnt find my place in society and have somehow ended up here, I try to offset my living where I can so I hope I'm not too much of a burden on them.

>Why the fuck would I lie
So you can feel good about yourself when delivering lines like this:
>you're a lazy piece of shit.

I know you think you're trolling me good here, and I guess if you define trolling as trying to get responses you are, but the truth of the matter is that there are people who sincerely believe the shit you're spouting. I'm not responding to you, but the entire cohort of jackasses you're representing.

But you're drawing attention away from the important part of the discussion now, and just trying to rile me up. I was already riled up before you started posting. Having people give me retarded advice on how to fix my situation from a position of privilege you can never have will do that to you.

I'd rather talk to someone else now.

Because no money

Parents and I were too poor to afford the college meme. I would have had to grind low-wage jobs for years to get enough blue collar experience to get something worthwhile, all the while living with my parents. Had to join the Navy becasue parents "feared for my development" and wanted me out of the house "exploring the world". Ended up sitting on my ass in a shipyard in a shitty blue state experiencing the sheer inefficiency of the US military industrial complex.

They don't let you.

I'm currently trying to get a home with my gf and they say our parents have to rent it
(We are 23 and 20 years old and have more than enough income for it)

Fuck off, retards.

Well. Replace 1k+ with 600 after taxes (or less) regardless of academic background (many engineers included).

Welcome to Portugal.

I did you fucking paki moron.
>doesn't know how to check for sage
Fuck off newfag.

So what important thread should we be posting in, o imageboard guru? The trump general? The HOW CAN WHITE MEN COMPETE? Tell me. What important politically incorrect social issue should I be focusing on?

directed to

satan, trump will fix.

Baby boomers hate thread?
Baby boomers hate thread.

Consider yourself lucky since you are German.
Spain has "european prices" for most shit, electricity and internet are some of the most expensive in Europe, etc., yet we have had >20% unemployment for years, far shitier wages than you, hostile bureaucracy for company and investors, massive corruption, south regions on full gibsmedat mode, inflated real estate prices even after housing bubble burst, and we will probably have a communist government elected in a few years.

Pls help.

No money. Just help us changing Spaniards' mindset.

I lived with my parents until I was 30 as a professional with a good paying job. I saved up thousands over a 5 year span.

Would do it again. I still live frugal on my own. I keep my rent low and I buy used.

Try creating a new topic instead of discussing the same fucking thing daily. You too retarded to start your own threads? Fucking sheep.

>mass quoting

hey retard!

this guy...
... has it right. I do most of the renting out for my father and my uncles. I only rent out to married couples with children, steady income and possibly a co-signee whom I can hold liable.

Mostly larger corps, e.g. would be a Nintendo Manager who moved to europe. Nips are good, they treat houses and gardens badly - but their company pays for all the necessary renovations.

I wouldn't rent out the small 65m2 2-room flat ( 950€ (!cold!) in suburbs of a larger city, btw ) to anyone who wouldn't have a real proper record.

I'm 22 and doing an extra year to get my master's. I'll probably stay with my parents until I have $100,000 to put a down payment on a house. I refuse to pay rent for an apartment because I'd be paying for something I'd never own. I usually take my parents out to dinner every weekend though.

No you didn't Paco

>Why are millennials so dependent on their parents?
Because their parents destroyed the world as we know it.

Only way blind morons like you will notice. Attracted to the big neon sign like the moth you are. Now fuck off non-country.
Germany calling anyone a retard. Laughable. Every single reply has been said already in every single one of these threads. Fuck off.

Yah, I really feel you man. Portugal, Spain, Greece, you guys have been FUCKED by the eurocrisis and Merkel-Doctrine.

All you guys would have been better off out of €, printing your own money, stabilizing your economy.

Instead you have a currency which is expensive far in excess of what your industry could cope with, unable to pay wages and unemployment running rampant ( further pushing down wages ).

I really feel for you. I feel like, FDP and AFD said it best. We should split up €zone into northern and southern at least.

Because you guys are literally eating turd sandwiches due to €€€

Why would you fabricate such a story?

Why does a gen Z kid make a Why X millennials so Y thread every day?

Is he insane?

Because I have NO FUCKING MONEY

we have parents that are, for all practical reasons, character actors of the state.

.t millenial that broke away from the constant barrage if suggestive thinking to make me feel inferior and worthless. Made something of myself and my life, and placated their pleading to move back with them to "get back on my feet" even though I was doing for better than they could even admit, just so i could be closer to them to redpill them, and get P.A to go red.

...your move, liberals

hey man, this:

I really do feel you. I feel bad for you. I feel for you as my european brothers. And you really do deserve fucking better.

for you burgertard: Fuck right off okay? You know what it's about, it's about shaping opinions, getting shit off your chest, building some momentum, realizing people are on your side.

How do you think we memed trump into fucking preisdency? By acknowledging: "we memed this all before, let's cede the board to ctr now, no need to regurgitate an ongoing narrativistic conversation'

Fuck off Shill. We won't let this slide.

Europa needs to find it's bearings.
