Older people cannot fathom this logic for some reason.
- jachee 3y agoFine. Give up. Don’t chase a dream. Just go find some drudgery for a paycheck. Don’t bother saving. You won’t need it. You never had a shot anyway. Your ideas are stupid. Any time you think of a thing, someone else has thought of it first. There’s no point in trying to make anything better. It’s all as good as it can possibly be. Such a perfect world doesn’t need your contribution; can’t be changed by the likes of you; won’t care, even if you do manage to come up with something novel. You’re too young to be taken seriously, and too late for everything, so why bother? So get out there and fulfill your failure, and don’t worry about dreaming. All the dreamers woke up ages ago.

- jovial_cavalier 3y agoPeople say "There don't seem to be as many opportunities nowadays compared to my parents' generation..." and the response from some older quite successful person who has not had to hunt for opportunities in the current regime is always "You fool! There's opportunity everywhere! Just get a paper route and in 5 years you'll be able to buy a mansion!"
- stavros 3y agoI find it interesting how the older person who hasn't had to hunt for opportunities in the current regime is wrong, but it's taken for granted that the younger person who hasn't had to hunt for opportunities in the old regime is right. I doubt that people 50 years ago were all rich.
