Our generation does not have the same opportunities as the previous generation; it is difficult not to be concerned about the future and angry about the past.
It is normal to see more Millennials living with their parents than with roommates. Marriage, having children and buying a house has to be delayed longer than before; according to the seniors, we are the ones to blame along with other things they say like lazy. No matter where you are, it seems this generation has to try harder to achieve less than any generation before. Rent/mortgage could consume half of the income; jobs are unstable if you can find one and probably you are overqualified for it.
In order to have a decent life, we have to live with DEBT, to study we have to take a student loan and probably many of us wont be able to retire until we are 75. Salaries have declined and entire sectors have disappeared. At the same time, the cost of living has increased. It is clear that there are not enough opportunities for all of us.
Are we the ones to blame? Is the previous generation to blame? Do we have to adapt our lifestyle? Is the government capable to do something?
Completely , perfectly agreed. Millennials have more difficult lifestyle than past generations . But, today's generations are not the ones the blame. The only people to blame for this horrible situation is capitalist system which has been ruling the whole earth recently. Capitalism makes people have more debt to make their end's meet. Yes, of course, millenials have to adapt their lifestyle for this bloody horrible life.
Well the previous generation, having been able to experience more hardships, probably thought it best to take it easy on the newer generation which can really be a two edged sword. Technology made us lazy. Google, wikipedia, facebook and the internet probably made this generation reliant on technology
