    Yeah, bad take. I’m doing well myself, but I had to go into well over 6 digits of debt and about 10 years just to get here. For most people that’s just impossible. You are the one who need the reality check here. Just because we got lucky doesn’t mean we can give up fighting for a better life for others.

    They’re not asking for Maseratis. They’re asking to make enough to not worry about eating. I’d say that should be a thing even for unskilled labor.

      It’s also a question of how where this meme was made. I’m married in my mid-late 20’s and my wife is mid 20’s, we’ve got a child and will hopefully hear that the sellers of a house accepted our bid.

      I didn’t grow up rich, she grow up in a middle class household with parents who saved an decent (as in literally decent, not decent as in a small business loan of a million dollars) sum which we will use against the down payment. We’re not rich or making astronomical sums either.

      Is lemmy US-centric/big cities-centric?
