    forums are an old person's game and us dinosaur's will see them to their extinction

    I guess that's "ruling"
    Right, because they live in moms basement rent free and don't have a job and are broke with no income.. Too busy gaming on XBOX.. No money to gamble..

    that's not my experience here in chicago

    I've been impressed that most 20 somethings that I encounter and all that I interview for roles in our company already have their own small business experience. They are go getters and are very entrepreneurial

    is the economy bad with a lot of people unemployed where you are?

    Unemployed because they are lazy and don't want a job and would rather live broke in Moms basement and get the free ride out here in California where I'm at..

    That's what I'm seeing.. They stay in school as long as possible to get the free ride from the parents too.. Lazy new generation of kids out here where I live, never developed a work ethic. Time out babies too.. Spare the rod spoil the child.

    No we have a lazy and privileged problem today where the kids are buried in social media and gaming and sitting on their asses all day long... Jobs are out there, gotta go out and apply and interview and want it. It's work.. Today's kids don't like that Chi!!

    When I grew up kids had an allowance but we had to pull weeds, paint the house, do dishes for a week, etc to earn that allowance.. Today kids just are given shiiit for free.. Sad .. Why would you ever want to get a job later on in life if all you knew was getting a free hand out???

    See where I'm getting at Chi?

    Fact CHi.. Google it even they can't hide what's going on with jobs.. These links pop up first... Jobs are there, just gotta go out and get them.. Many Kids and young adults are still living at home and unemployed by choice..

    This is #1 and #2 in google search...

    I read

    if they are lazy=unemployed

    the numbers don't show lazy or unemployed

    I stick by the numbers and trumps booming economy and numbers

    not your anecdotes

    must be a liberal cali thing
