We are currently living in the chapter of our lives devoted to survival as living things. Additionally, we are aware that survival is currently difficult; if we do nothing, we will undoubtedly perish from starvation. Whatever is going on in our lives, whether we like it or not, we still need to figure out how to turn a profit.
Not survival, our generation/time has the highest survival rate as a species compared to the different ages in the human history, we have cures for once incurable and almost mythological sicknesses/diseases back when science wasn't yet that advance, what we're struggling right now is finding purpose and trying to make a name for ourselves, with billions of us, I think it's going to depress anyone to think that some people will never find their purpose because they have to compete for ever dwindling resources. Also worth mentioning that with capitalism, everyone is trying to make things that was once free and taken for granted into a profit making machine so yeah, life ain't easy because we let it be.
