I'm part of Gen Z and slightly younger than him but he's completely right, because the way our generation thinks goes like this:
If you follow the system and work "hard" at your 9-5, you aren't rewarded. There is no future in it, because you are essentially a slave for the people at the top and the backbone of the system. You pay 35-50% in taxes and have 0 stake in society.
Buying a house or apartment was every single generation's number 1 priority. Now? You're priced out of the housing market entirely, unless you want to become a slave to a bank for the rest of your life.
Every day you're being destroyed by inflation while banks print money out of thin air. The cost of living is simply ridiculous, and you cannot save your way to a future, because the more money you hold in your bank, the less purchasing power you have over time.
The "save money" approach that Boomers love to preach because they are so disconnected from reality, worked for previous generations because the times were completely different. This whole "eat less at a restaurant" is outdated bullshit.
Even if you start your own company, the chances are high that you're already being crushed by the competition, or you get wrecked by taxes and imaginary 'laws' designed to prevent you from creating any wealth. Companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Intel and Apple have essentially monopolized the entire world.
Your average person doesn't think "how do I start a business?", they think "how do I put money into their stock or this crypto?" because the only way to multiply your money is to join the winning team rather than try to build one. There are exceptions of course; plenty of people still succeed doing their own thing, but I'm talking about the average person here.
Bottom line is, capitalism has gotten out of control. I won't even get to market manipulation, healthcare scandals, DEI, mass illegal immigration and using wars to launder money, then having the public to pay the price while the rich get richer.
So you're probably wondering, what does my generation do?
> Some slave themselves to the banks by following the old system which has priced them out from living, completely dead on the inside, hating every day of their lives and don't know any better.
> Some start their own businesses and look for any avenue outside the system (typically online), because the system caps you in the real world based on how far you can scale.
> Some check out entirely, they work a basic job but spend every paycheck down to zero; travel, buy whatever they want, go outside, and enjoy life as much as possible because there is no future worth saving for.
The one thing all three of these groups have in common is that they all want to see the system burn to the ground because these politicians are so good at talking, yet nothing ever gets done. They constantly abuse people as much as they can. It used to work for a while, but not anymore, which is why people around the world have lost faith in every single government.
Best advice I can give anybody is to avoid governments as much as possible. Avoid putting yourself in debt. Avoid their propaganda. Operate outside of the system by starting your own thing, the internet is your best friend here, understand that most 'rules' aren't real, and stay away from anything they tell you is 'good' for you.
Cat season is about to save the memecoin space and we all know the number one cat in town is @TheRoaringKitty right. You know he posted $RKC and handed us the red bandanna yeah? You know his PFP remains with the red bandanna on from that day he posted the $RKC ca right? It is so obvious so don’t overthink it. With a growing community, a solid floor in the millions and great turnover you need to secure your position soon or forever rue this opportunity. If you got this far you have the facts and have been warned. Just saying 🐈📈
I’ve called many meme coins in my time but $RKC is the most obvious multi billon meme runner I’ve come across.
Why? @TheRoaringKitty posted the CA and the bandanna stays on.
Could it really be that simple?
The meme that mocked Bitcoin is outperforming it
@ButtCoin is up 127% this week. The Solana memecoin trades at $0.026 with a $26M market cap, more than doubling while the majors move sideways.
The joke is older than Dogecoin. "Buttcoin" started as a 2011 forum gag mocking Bitcoin believers, became crypto skepticism's favorite word, and went full circle as a token last year, now blessed by the meme's original creator.
15 years of laughing at number-go-up, and now solana:Cm6fNnMk7NfzStP9CZpsQA2v3jjzbcYGAxdJySmHpump is the number going up.
