How do you even attempt to date girls like this that their family spends this much cash on a freaking dorm room decoration

Most people aren't struggling because of those things.


bullshite.
1. LOTS of people are to their eyeballs in $1000+/month car notes, that are totally unnecessary.

2. Credit card debt! - most credit card is built on $50 here and $30 there that is again unnecessary.

3. Housing…. Housing is expensive, absolutely…. There is also an abundance of people who buy a big luxury home that can’t afford it. You don’t need that swimming, pool, or 3500 sqft house, if you can’t afford it.

Just because you get approved for a $500k mortgage doesn’t mean you need to buy a $500l house.
If people are realistic with their budget, and spend accordingly, they don’t end up sunk.

What I’m talking about isn’t everyone.
Like I originally said,
Inflation sucks and has put a huge pressure on the middle class. People outspending their income is also a large part of it. BOTH ARE TRUE.

Why not use the $20K and invest it in an index fund at a 10% nominal average annual return or roughly 7% to 8% adjusted for inflation, in 30 years the daughter would have roughly $348,988 as a graduation gift? This is just a stupid waste of money.


While I totally agree it’s a waste of money, most of these families have generational wealth and $20k is nothing to them. Example: My college girlfriend didnt like her freshman year roommate so her dad bought her a $450k house 1 block from campus

I rolled my eyes at the headline, but clicked anyway. As soon as mom comes into view with that trashy arse back tattoo and accent while both of them talk in that awful fake voice women use, had to cut it off. Retarded.

You’re either retarded because you believe that statement or you’re lying. Pick one. There are no other valid reasons to make that statement.

I wonder what the tax burden on families is at all levels compared to 50 years ago...

My 7 year old niece is almost too old for a room like that. What fricking grown college student wants a room designed like that?

1) I don’t believe she charges $20k for this.

2) it’s weird as frick that she puts a picture of her son that no one cares about in these girls rooms.

And she will wonder why her husband is miserable, cheating on her and eventually leaves her. Nobody will ever be able to meet her unrealistic expectations.

Most people don’t consider these things luxuries, because everyone has them. That’s exactly my point- the standard of living now, vs the standard of living 40-50 years ago, is massively different, and eats up a lot of income.

That’s the thing. Those things that you just listed aren’t luxuries anymore. It’s the standard of living for a normal life. Things change. Do you think that having indoor plumbing is a luxury just because it was considered a luxury 100 years ago?

The Taco Bell situation is the best example

15 years ago minimum wage in Louisiana would buy you 7 5-layer burritos from taco bell for one hour of work

Today minimum wage buys you 1 5-layer burrito and a value cinnamon twists

Young people struggling is not a labor issue and it's hilarious that boomers act as though it is when it's such an obvious situation their kids and grandkids are currently in

Exactly!!! Thank you for making my point....
Things change... So, complaining that, "Used to a family could survive on one income, and get ahead, etc" is dumb.. shite changes.
if you want to live life according to the way things were 'back then" (no cell, one car, no computer, etc...) you could potentially do so on the income, of a skilled worker....
If you want to live by today's standards, what you must do to earn that is DIFFERENT!

this is actually a pretty good representation of the class divide. the wealthy are getting richer while the middle class is getting more numerous and poorer
