Current Events > 7 Things the Middle Class Won't Be Able To Afford in the Next 5 Years.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I suppose its just the writer's opinion but more or less it might as well between that and this one a month ago it might as well say that there won't be a Middle class soon as anyone not rich will just be reduced to poor beggars more or less...and so many are just seeing this fate as a fact of life.

Im not too concerned for my own situation. From the time I was a teenager and started working I knew Id have to take care of myself and was taught good financial responsibility from a young age and have busted my ass to put myself in a good position that Im in currently.

I feel bad though for any young people right now just entering the workforce though. Its a different situation these days.

The only thing that will keep me working is insurance. Money wise Ill be fine and could retire comfortably in my mid 50s honestly.

I should work out a deal with some young generation person where we make a business deal and get married. I go on her insurance while she works and I enjoy retirement and when I die she can have my house. That way we both benefit.

If you continue to call them the 'middle class', they will continue to think this state of affairs is temporary, and will feel superior to the poors.

The US middle class isn't getting less well off, it's disappearing.

bruh i feel like a lot of this actively applies right now not even in 5 years

Well if to many say that then pepole might start to realize it and go berserk so you can see why many in power are still trying to pass off the illusion as reality...as Trump and co keep trying to blame everything on minorities and hide that the world is reverting to just the lords and the serfs.

It can't be overstated how much Boomers fucked things up for the younger generations

History will look at Boomers as the ones who had everything, but as a result were spoiled so much that they refused to share anything and destroyed all progress because of that refusal to willingly give up anything...if humanity survives the damage they do what they did can never be forgotten.
