Daily "still early" post...
Just watched another video of a Gen Z'er recording herself having a meltdown in her car, but this time I actually sympathise. It resonated with thoughts I've had for a while.
The whole gist of the video was basically how life used to be less expensive and how she'll be left with just $10 to last a week... and she's totally right !
I grew up in the 80's, and whilst we were never wealthy as such, we had a decent house, two cars, we had what we needed and my dad was the only one who earned a wage. Now both my wife and I work full time, and we're only just what I consider "comfortable"...
Someone actually commented on the video saying "its not ok", and how they "dont know what the solution is" (to which I obviously replied with a one word answer), but since developing my interest in Bitcoin just 18 months ago, it has become so much more obvious how gradual degradation of fiat, general complacency and a system i suspect intentionally designed to keep people working has resulted in such an abysmal situation that is only getting worse.
If only there was a solution...
