BOOMER: “Cut back on expenses.”
ME: “I don’t eat out. I don’t travel. I drive a 2015 Civic.”
BOOMER: “Maybe get a second job.”
Funny how every solution means working more for a system that keeps making the finish line further away.

Bro, they didn’t raise the minimum wage. The price of everything still skyrocketed.
