Well yeah, millennials also severely delayed and fuck all has been done to improve things. Add in a few pandemic school years on top of it

Just Gen Z? I'm an elder Millennial and I feel like I'm doing this right now.

Yes, Gen Z "is doing that"... It's them actively doing that... That's how we are writing the headline, inferring choice or preference... Not, "Gen Z can't have milestones" not "The Epstein class ate all of Gen Z's deserved, basic, human milestones" no... Gen Z is delaying.

Life milestone should be violent revolution. Otherwise nothing will change.

I know I'll probably never not live with family.

These are seeds of fascism, right there. Numbers like these are mutually exclusive with democracy.

The essential struggle is a class struggle, not a generational one. The billionaires love it when we blame boomers, Zoomers, Xers, etc., instead of blaming billionaires.

My cousin and his wife want kids but they're both almost thirty and there's no way they can afford children any time soon. I feel so bad for them because with how life is going for them, it's not looking like they'll be able to be parents. I'm not parent.aterial and the thought of being a parent disgusts me, but it is heartbreaking to the people I care about not being able to achieve their dream of starting a family

It was hard enough as a millennial getting to the point I'm at and it's still not easy. I feel very bad for Gen Z. They're getting fucked over

Not surprised. My wife and I make more money than we ever have and I feel like everything is out of reach. Inflation is through the roof. And wages haven't come close to keeping up. We're fortunate both of us make mid $20 an hour.

For someone starting out I have no idea how they could manage. If I was starting out today straight from highschool I'd most likely be homeless

Or maybe just questioning if there's any point in achieving them at all.

They gonna have to rethink what a life milestone even is, just like many of the millenials are finally, really accepting.

Are they actually surprised?
Even the previous generation were delaying and skipping milestones.
Pikachu face: late stage capitalism.

As a kid I heard people talk about how Japanese culture was being destroyed because they're overworked, and how they didn't really have a way out of it politically. I always thought that would be us eventually. I didn't know how true that was until now. The only way out of this mess is through it, and people with money completely understand this.

The use of the term "milestone" or "goal" when the article talks about how these are neither for a growing percentage of the population is interesting.

Gen Z, ripping off millenials again.
