From financial crises to high inflation, Millennials have experienced a series of “missing era dividends,” as if the world owes us a check that never gets cashed.
To think the world owes you anything is the first reason why this is a failed generation. Generations which came before never had that kind of mediocre mindset, and for that reason they achieved finding alternatives of survival and prosperity even in chaotic and crisis scenarios, overcoming the difficulties and turning the tables for the future generations (X, Y, Z, Alpha...), allowing them to have more comfortable lives. What we have nowadays is mainly thanks to Baby Boomers, Silent Generation and Greatest Generation.
Instead of working hard like our ancestors did, we waste a lot of time complaining and telling everyone how hard life is and how hard we work. Hard it was in previous decades, without modern technology, internet, phone lines, having only slow vehicles for accessibility. And despite all the difficulties, people still managed to have a more decent and worthy life compared to nowadays, where nothing makes sense and nothing has a real deep meaning.
Bonds which used to unite people don't exist anymore these days. People are concerned about dividends share? I'm concerned about not being possible to develop real connections with people anymore.
