As a millennial this kind of stuff really grinds my gears
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I just read about " 35% of millennials say student loan debt is preventing them from buying a home"</p> <p><a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/personal-finance/millennials-student-loan-debt-buying-a-home">source</a></p> <p>​</p> <p>Buying a house? The average cost of a home in America is about $245,000, according to Zillow. In some areas that number can double easily if not more. That's a lot of money. Can I afford it with my job? Not even in 30 years. And I'll lose this job way before that.</p> <p>And then boomers wonder why we are financially screwed. They think we are "lazy". And keep telling us to work harder so that we can achieve better status or buy things we need. Many of the older generation people laugh at me when I mention that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum are a great way to invest money and one day maybe afford to buy a home with it. They dismiss it as a joke. They call it "computer money" and "fake news". I'm being told that I should work harder even though I work 10 hours a day and am a father of two little kids who need me.</p> <p>For me personally, crypto must not fail. It's the only thing that I still have hope that it'll pull me out of brain numbing grinding everyday. I want to say that I have other ways of saving money but I dont. Am I a fool?
