All I know was when I was 18 I had 2 pennies in my pocket - I worked hard - I studied at night school - I didnt invest in quick rich schemes - I bought things not on credit (dont own a credit card).
12 years later I was classified in the million dollar range of assests and still climbing.
What I didnt do was: bitch and moan because my first job wasn't at some fancy CAFE like start up with stress yoga balls you can take naps in when you feel a faint little tired, stay at low paying dead end jobs, buy useless shit I didnt need because it was suggested I needed to - still have 7 year old Sony T.VS that got a google dongle as an upgrade intead of rushing off every year to buy the latest flat screen T.V at 2 grand a pop.
Your generation is just weak - and doesnt try - blames everyone else for your shortcomings when 2-3 generations prior to yours they would have killed for the chances your generation got in life.

I agree with most of this but I think the 80's/90's was a much better time to be in your 20's and 30's as far as opportunity. There is still plenty of opportunity but people have to want it. You have to be willing to move, adapt and do something that the market demands.
