Literally me rn but I’m gen z
Me too and I’m Gen X.
I’m an elder millennial but you guys are in the same boat. No idea how we’re going to afford housing down the line.
I did a PhD so I was a little late to the “real world” than other millenials. And I gotta say GenZ are in a much worse boat than millenials depending on location. In the Toronto area I’d say there’s a lucky subset of millenials who will never afford a home but have been in a rent-controlled unit for a few years. Idk how affordable having an apartment to yourself would be for gen z. To spend only 35% of your income on rent in Toronto right now for a 1 bedroom you’d need to be in the top quintile for HH income.
I think I joked previously the millenial experience was going on zillow to look at houses you’ll never afford while the genz experience is looking at apartments you’ll never afford.
The solution is to burn down all homes so nobody has a place to live. A sorta “if I can’t have THING no one will”.
In Minecraft, of course 😉
Don’t worry, with the collapse of the environment, the economy won’t really matter. So, we at least have that going for us, which is nice.
I’m just very excited about all the massive asteroids that keep near missing us. Talk about exciting!
Don’t forget the volcanoes ! Especially the super massive one that is overdue for quite a long time now.
- Lower standards
- Buy shitty small rural house built nearly 200 years ago
- Spend any and all free time & money learning the skills & buying the tools to strip it down and rebuild it. All of it is online. Do it quietly and you won’t have to pull permits. Hold yourself to a higher standard than what a permit will allow and you’ll be fine.
- Continue to invest in yourself and your skills. You will become a rich person if you do this, if not in money, then knowledge. The earlier you can do this, the more value will compound off of your skillset.
It’s not fun but it’s possible for myself, born 98. Got my little slice and the sunsets and stars are sure damn pretty out in the boonies. Gotta deal with the rednecks & general small mindedness though.
If your professionnal situation lets you do this, go for it. Problem is, for a lot of people including myself, jobs are in the city. Moreover, here in France, by living in the countryside, you get an additionnal bonus of :
-
no public transit
-
no hospital
-
no doctor
-
no school
-
no post office
-
no bakery (the worst)

I’m born same year. Currently hoping I can afford food this month.
I specifically meant I’m getting my degree in physics so I can do this
Can you stop by me in 2012 when I bought up a bunch of Bitcoin and tell me not to waste it, hold onto it for a few years because it will make me a millionaire? Thx
I can make a pitstop
Just think, somewhere in the multiverse is a universe where boomers can’t afford houses because their kids traveled back in time and bought them all up.
Captain Buzzkill here, but an infinite number of universes wouldn’t necessarily guarantee that every possible scenario happens.
As an analogy, there’s an infinite amount of integers, but you’re not going to find 1.5 in them.
Infinite universes doesn’t define infinite in any real way. You’ve defined infinity as all integers but infinity can be defined to include all rationals as well, which would include 1.5. In an unbounded infinite universes where the universe exists, you should find every possible scenario.
It was an analogy for how something infinite doesn’t necessarily contain everything you can think of, not meant to be taken absolutely literally (hence the word “analogy” there). Also I got this from some physicist so I didn’t pull it out of my own butt, I’ll try find a source
I’ve heard it’s just before the last one.
*can’t afford multiple rental properties
Backwards time travel is physically impossible. You would need to travel at truly negative speed to achieve it, but the magnitude of speed is always positive.
Stop trampling on our hopes and dreams, it’s all we have left.
Whoosh material right here.
Edit: Apparently OP is making a joke. Mmmhmm
Whoosh aa a meme should die
Imagine assuming the other party didn’t get the joke in the pic but just chose to ignore it, just so the dumb reddit meme can live on!

Correction: You’d need to travel with a speed higher than the vacuum speed of light.
Thinking about it, it’s even more complicated than that. You’re right that a negative speed would not work since the square of a negative number is positive anyway. But a speed higher than c would result in a negative square root, so no real solution. Also, traveling at exactly the speed of light would divide by zero lol
But maybe our formula is wrong. Or it’s just impossible, who knows?

Being serious now, is this a developed country thing? I live in Brazil and it ain’t easy to get a house, sure, but as impossible as the internet makes the US sound like
