Uhhh spending it and enjoying my life
When you’re over 30 it gets old.
Why judge others about this? It has nothing to so with choice. I worry for people and our country in general, as the gap is getting wider and our safety nets are under attack. Now according to sone of the TikTok bros, you’re a failure uf you don’t have a lambo by 25.

Social media and the comparison trap makes it worse.

Some of this is also psychological warfare from banks. Guilting people into feeling like they need to have their own apt or house, so they have to pay mortgages or rent. For centuries families lived multi generation under one roof. Even in the United States, and it wasn't considered a failure. At some point the bigshots pushed the notion that you have to have your own property. It was a financial scheme to put as many people in mortgage debt as possible.
I don't look at someone living with parents and grandparents under one roof as a failure. Even in a smaller home. But I'd like to also point out that the rich don't go out on their own. Most of them live 3 or 4 generations in the same estate. It's working class folks that really have to struggle to own their own property. It's easier financially to live multiple generations in a household, and more family oriented.

Eh, it does have to do with life choices to an extent.

This is just another "poor people are lazy" thread. When you are born poor, ALL opportunities in life are lower. Education, chance to pursue anything other than sustenance. It is very hard for an individual to break out of that.
There is no age. But society should do better.
This is just not true. The poor have to be self-starters and not rely on their family to begin their education journey but someone in poverty who completes high school with even respectable grades will have money handed to them by some college.
As long as they choose why is Lee when selecting college major they will not be in poverty. I'm not saying everyone will be pulling down six figures just for the college degree but even lower middle class is much higher than poverty.
