Is the situation worse than ever? Who the fuck cares? instead of whining about it, do something about it.

A) American millenials complaining about student debt... I know plenty of Americans who got their STEM degrees FOR FREE at top EU universities...
A friend of mine is studying at the top European uni (EPFL) which ranks next to Harvard or Stanford on world rankings... He works as a waiter and it's enough to cover tuition+living cost+save a few hundred per month.

So there are options out there. If you didn't bother to research them, or are too lazy or afraid to move your ass, it's your own fault, don't blame anyone else than you.

B) same for work. Millenials with skills are still finding jobs easily and getting good wages. I regullarly get unsolicited messages on LinkedIn to do interviewss. If you are not, it's your fault because you didn't build those skills, so stop bitching.

Many of my Spanish engineer friends whine about the situation... 50% youth unemployment, salaries close to minimum wage even for experienced engineers, you name it.

Yet when I tell them about a job opportunity that pays 5 times their current salary, in a company who plans to hire 200 engineers within the next year... all of them chicken out because they would have to get out of their comfort zone (relocate) to get the job.

Yet the little bitches still whine about how "Stallion you are so lucky to find all those amazing jobs". Dude, if I recommend you, I guarantee that you get the job, and you don't want to, so stop saying I'm lucky.

End of rant.

Remove head from ass. Read OP. Contribute something other than self flattery. (Stallion apologised)

Frankly it's high time that residential properties were recognised as a semi-finite resource and that buying them as an investment was taxed out of profitability.

Fuck the boomers. This problem would have already been solved but for the very virtue of their generation being an abnormally large generational voting bloc. Now that they're dying off we only have to fight the banks on this.

People with a shit-ton of money can invest in other shit that doesn't leave families on the rental-roundabout. Prospective parents with one and a half incomes are not going to be upset about being priced out of the stock market or getting lower returns for their dollar when buying gold. They just want a place to call their own and that's not unreasonable in any nation that values community and everything that flows on from that.

And anyone that gives zero fucks about their people, their nation or their culture can go suck a dick.
