Funny how it never occurs to the folks who espouse the virtues of socialism and communism that they should apply those same ideals to their own life. Acting collectively was the way my friends and I were able to move away from home.

Not me. I just paid off my second house.

So self pity it is

Haha I love it when kids tell me what my life was like.

Back to my original point. No, not everyone who worked 40 hours a week could afford a house.

You can wrap yourself in self pity or you can be resourceful, your choice.

A “measly construction job” is a good paying one. A person working at a McDonald’s for 40 hours a week at that time would not be able to afford an apartment let alone a house. When your aunt bought her house interest rates were in the teens, today they are 7% and that’s a record high. My parents bought a house in 1976 for $28,000 dad worked full time at a city job plus always had a second job or side hustle. Our family would strip copper to make ends meet. Mom cooked every meal, eating out was a rare treat. Never once did we even order pizza, Mom make it with powder dough. We didn’t have cable. Got by on two junker cars sometimes one.

Every generation has it’s challenges. This is the first to have a public circle jerk/pity party

Are people under the impression everyone who had a 40 hour a week job had their own house?

Maybe try not being such a whiny bitch and pay attention to what they are trying to tell you.

This man shits worthless click bait out of his mouth daily, why does media fall for it?
