As a millennial I don't get that. We were wrapped in comfort and money for so many years.
Really? With price hikes that beat inflation and wages that don't are people not expecting this to happen?
Of course not. They only see dumb cash cows spending thousands in pointless micro transactions and want in on the free cash.
I read someone say something like "Gen Z is killing the Millennials are killing ..." industry.
Day ending in y, as in "y are we blaming kids for demographic collapse and the decoupling of productivity and wages?"
generations, immigrants, foreigners, the poor, genders, worldviews – someone has to be to blame. it can't possibly be that simple, that all the money just ends up with the rich...
Not Gen Z, but I do this. It's called having little disposable income.
Gen Z probably first generation that didn't grow up with Cable. Hell most probably never watched tv over the air. So this is not shocking or news to us raising Gen Z kids.
Yesssss, Z peeps, draw attention away while millennials continue to ruin other things with our avocado toast and useless degrees.
In a world of free entertainment everywhere you look, free trials, and shared passwords? Hmmm. I can’t imagine why kids don’t love endless subscriptions and triple AAA. :0
