The discontent in millenials nowadays is exactly because they are peddled that fairy-tale myth.
"Get a degree and get a job, you can will be able to afford a house and a family with children."
It might have worked for the older generation but it sure as heck doesn't work now. Why do you think "hustle" culture is so pushed right now? Our parents didn't need to "hustle" to afford these basic things.

This is still true, you just might have to move to a different place from where you grew up to get it. You know, like enormous amounts of our parents/grandparents/ancestors did (why did people come to the USA in the first place? Lack of access to housing where they were from ;p )
