Something about this boomer-esque rigamarole really bothers me. I think it's the fact that he's turning the son into a pack mule work-hustle drone in a horrible economy that the father himself did not have to deal with.
>>84461634are there really places where min wage is fucking $12???
>>84461634not having a car makes you basically homelesslike ffs at least loan him the money for one so he can drive around to earn cash
if you live in a car-dependent are and don't buy your teenage kid an old corolla or something you're a horrible parent. being able to get around is essential to development.>>84461669do you think that's high or low? that's nearly double what it is where i live.
>>84461634>how long it would take to save up $3k making $12/hour and saving all your money7 weeks? That's supposed to be so much that you start peddling rugs instead?
>>4461634> son is a sack of shit that refuses to do real work> copes by pretending he's so much better than everybody else> nigger logic

>>84461634It's a dreadful acceptance of our reality. If you want things in 2026, you better be already rich, connected, or ready to fucking hustle.College is 80k without scholarships. There is a massive glut of graduates and a massive layoff going on at the same time. Going to college for a job is almost at the point where is it a terrible investment unless you plan to be a medical doctor or a scientist.Bachelor's degrees today are worth less to employers than a high school diploma in 1969. Employers have fifty applicants with a BS, they don't give a fuck about your piece of paper or your debt.Sell rugs, take free things off craigslist and sell them on ebay, scam people with cryptocurrency pump and dumps. You aren't going to get wealthy from working, pretty much ever again, that was a boomer thing and it's never coming back without a full-on labor revolution.
>>84461634>spent 1500 bucks to make 4kthis is exactly the type of nonsense the state should punish
>>84461634He's not even 18 and his dad is helping him learn how to sell shit online (extremely prescient skill nowadays) and is super involved in his life. His dad also has an entire airplane hangar of a garage to put shit in. I think he'll be fine. In comparison, my dad beat me to death every other day (literally every other day since the age of 3 to around 12, I'm not exaggerating, the most peaceful times were when it was like once a week) and would blow out his lungs screaming at me because I couldn't do the extra math homework that he bought for me to do. I feel like a fucking alien now because other white families are normal and functional but here I am as a stunted retard KHHV NEET that couldn't move out even if he wanted to. When I talked about being beaten around other white people they looked at me like dogs hearing a funny noise and tilting their head like I just spoke alien zipzorp zip zerp zorp zop language.
>>84461845You will make a lot more as a HVAC repairman (random example) than you are driving around picking up free junk
>>84462042Yeah that's not really boomer shit, boomer is complaining "no one ever gave me nothin" while never lifting a finger in your 20000 dollar house
>>84461634The worst part is the dad suggesting a high risk route from a fucking podcast while intentionally doing nothing to help, and bragging about it all on top of it as if he's going to win parent of the year. He's pretty much guaranteeing that his kid is gonna fail so he'll have even more power over it when he gloats. Sounds exactly like something the narcissistic assholes who I have to share DNA with would do.
>>84461634I'm all for hating boomers, but this dad seems pretty based as far as boomers go.Sure, maybe dad could buy the car for him, but I can at least see the logic behind wanting to teach your soon-to-be-adult son about saving money. There is a certain sense of pride as well that comes with doing things independently and not needing to rely on daddy for everything.
>>84461634>horrible economyIt doesn't matter. Your parents will die and the gibs will run out
>>84462042You didn't deserve that, anon. No child does. I'm sorry, this world is too painful and its people suffer greatly. If I was a genie in a bottle, I would grant you wealth and mercy. Sadly, the best I can do is a (you)
He should have advised his son to create an OnlyFans account after telling him to start MTF HRT. If he had done so, his son would have achieved a bank balance of $5 million one year later.
