Zoomlenials just can't manage the money they have nowadays. And DESU they're mostly entitled spoiled brats who've never even seen the inside of a grocery store. They just uberjeet every meal of the day then wonder why they can't afford to buy a house...Here are a few tips for you faggots : >Don't buy streaming subscriptions. It's never been easier to pirate films/tv/music than it is today>Cook takeaway food at home, it tastes better and is a fraction of the price. Make your own fucking burrito, cunt>No gym subscription, use your body weight and go for a run>Buy a used car that you can actually afford>Buy a cheap android outright no contract
>>5406024091400 dollars financed for three years
>>540602409This. I was in an IGA a few days ago and saw some zoom zoom buying multiple cans of Campbell's Luxury Soups. Sheer luxury and excess but lil'zoom probably went home and tweeted that food prices were too high in Canada.
>>540602409>It's never been easier to pirate films/tv/music than it is today"There's no affordability crisis if you just STEAL!" Yeah no shit dude, but what do I do when all the grocery stores get rid of their self checkouts?
That's a great point. Phones are also too expensive. Even the cheaper alternatives.
>>540602409>have you considered canceling your electric service to save money you entitled "zoomlennial"?The sad part is millions of dollars are being wasted to come up with this bullshit propaganda.
>>540602409We used to say back in the day, that's it's not the high cost of living, it's the cost of living high.
>>540602409Inflation has skyrocketed. Groceries, transportation, essential goods, everything is far more expensive everywhere because boomers voted boomers who don’t care about adding staggering debt and infinity immigrants. Those are facts. Boomers act like psychopaths and then try to dismiss their own bad deeds. Or even sneeringly gloat about it.
>>540602409>just, like, don't spend money bro>*economy crashes*>NOOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT AIIEEEEEEEEfuck off.
>just accept lower standards of living>just fucking do it ok????
>>540602625Good rebuttal, you should tweet that back at that boomer faggot.
>>540602409Agreed. The idiots that go on shows like Caleb's and whine about capitalism being unfair only to see they are pissing half their income on garbage is just mind-blowing. Commies are taking full advantage of these brainwashed idiots with fake degrees and massive debt
>>540602409while it is entirely possible to live without an iphone, consider the fact that>nearly impossible to have a job without a smartphone at this point especially considering the 3G networks were all killed>a decade of gaslighting young kids that women would accuse them of rape if they show up to a date with an android>market is basically a duopoly of $1000+ phones from samsung or apple unless you buy an unlocked chink phone that doesn't play nice with US networksit's frankly hilarious to me that realistically inflation has been 15% over the past six years, the (lying) numbers from the Fed show 3-4%, then these people lie to you and imply that inflation's been zero percent and you're poor because despite things getting CHEAPER you're still bad with moneyit's like a real life jewish "loan you $10? Why would I loan you $5!? You owe me $10!" meme

>>540602409Texan here. During my morning walk I was passing the cattle yard when I overheard a few of my ranch hands discussing the election with one of the Old Buckaroos, Black Bart. Black Bart was watching the sunrise while sucking on some dip when he turned to face them with a glint in his eye. “Ya know, Oakland Kam ain’t so bad. Jobs ar’ up. ‘Flation goin’ down. I reckon she ain't such a soiled dove after all.”I expected a snort, maybe even a guffaw. But as I watched their faces I saw smirks of approval. Cowpuncher Johnny Ringo was the first to speak. “Ya know, I wa’ thinkin’ tha same thing boss. Bout time ‘Merica had a Brat in Chief.” Before I knew the ranch hands they were whooping and hollering like Kansas City faggots, so loud Bessie the cook started clanging her pans together to get the boys to settle down. “Settle down y’all. November ain’t fer another few weeks. Now git in ‘ere n’ ‘ave some vittles.Everybody was laughing, shaking hands, and clapping each other on the back. I swear, even the Angus cattle seemed to nodding their heads. The Rio Grande might be running deep red today, but you can bet your hat it runs blue come November.

>>540602409I downgraded to the free phone years ago, and I say cost of living is too high.
honestly the phone isnt the problem its the food being a 1200% mark up and no one stops buying it. this level of pretend dependency is peak clown1400$ phone financed over 3 years is like 50$/mo and usually a phone plan comes with it, so lets say $100/moa fucking tortilla beans cheese and maybe meat shouldnt cost 17$i make my own burritos all day everyday getting a 5lb bag of beans, a big bag of shredded cheese, 10lb bag of flour, yeast for 50$ with meat and sauces being the splurge optionFuck off
>>540602863>15% over six years>fed says 3-4%Nice try comparing cumulative numbers over a yearly stat.
>>540602409Who let this retard post again?
>>540603142sorry i should have said 15% YoYwhich it isif you go by the 1981 CPIthe hilarious thing is that one of the first things trump did was fire everyone at the BLS and put in a woman who changed how the CPI was calculated, then fire her when the numbers looked funny, which is why we never got Oct 2025 inflation numbersI'm not paying the jews at shadowstats for current data but inflation YoY since 2019 has surely been 10% at a bare minimum
That troon is right, people should stop buying iphones
>>540602863>market is basically a duopoly of $1000+ phones from samsung or apple unless you buy an unlocked chink phone that doesn't play nice with US networksThis last point I'm not so sure about. My OnePlus 13R seems to have no issue with T-Mobile's towers.

I'm a millennial and I've never been able to afford simple things boomers had like being able to afford rent and invest because jobs don't promote and don't pay enough to live on a single income.
>>540603710And assault isn't battery, but the distinction between the two is trivial at best you pedantic nigger
>>540603807No it isn't you jew shill. You don't lose anything when someone pirates your shit, unlike with assault.
>>540602625>>540602744The iphone explicitly can't be too much cheaper because of a variety of reasons, probably top reason right now is that companies like YMTC and CXMT in china that sell nand and ram told Apple to go fuck themselves when they asked for cheap computing parts. The rest of this comes from the strategic vulnerabilities in our supply chain- specific rare earths that china has developed has enabled them to have a 90% monopoly on certain materials that are required for computing. We COULD develop our own, or even build mines in african countries like south africa, but this is requires effort and for the market to not be literally retarded constantly where all the investment goes into software instead of hardware or natural resources companies on the logic that software has much less of a cost to create, ignoring that hardware and resources to make it is the bottleneck on software.

>>540602409Catturd will be dead of old age soon.
>>540602409iPhones don’t even cost $1400 unless you’re getting the top of the line models which most people don’t do. This strawman comes from the idea that everyone is still buying flagship phones every 2 years like it’s 2013. Phones aren’t getting better and faster like they used to so there’s no reason to spend big on brand new models. An iPhone SE works perfectly fine, costs $200 and lasts for 5 years. You can go to Walmart and buy an android phone for like $50.
>>540602409>YOU LIVE IN THE RICHEST, MOST PROFITABLE COUNTRY DURING THE RICHEST, MOST PROFITABLE TIME IN HISTORY.......... but you have to cut every corner, stop eating out, stop drinking coffee, stop eating all of that avocado toast, and live as cheaply as possible to surviveSomething just doesn't add up. If this is the best that capitalism and the richest country in the world has to offer to young people, it's not a surprise they're willing to flip over the table and start over with something else like communism
>>540604132>Something just doesn't add up.It is the richest and most prosperous time in history, for those at the very top. Something like 13 people now own more than half of all the wealth in America (and the gap is growing). So just imagine how much they’re prospering right now.
>>540602409I love how, despite smartphones becoming a reasonably priced tool that pretty much everyone has to own for work and general communication, and which can be purchased cheaply and/or financed over multiple years if necessary, conservatards still automatically assume they're $1000+ luxury items.And, even still, $1400 is a one-time purchase for an item that most people will keep for 5+ years before replacing. It's like saying people shouldn't complain about anything because they own a $7000 used car, or pay $2000 a month for morgage. Yeah, that's kind of the point. We're being jewed everywhere. The fact that I can't get a brownoid to make me a burrito for under 10 bucks is just adding insult to injury.
>>540602409Catturd is a retarded faggot midwit. I would like to kick him in his teeth.
>>540603880>engages in mental gymnastics to justify getting shit without paying for it>calling anyone a jewIf everyone in the world did what you do and pirated all their media, no media would ever get created again because there would be no economic incentive to do so.This makes you a parasite nigger. I bet you have used the term "paypig" unironically, haven't you?The sad part of all this is that since you don't think media is worth spending money but you still spend your time consooming it, you must therefore believe your time is worthless. I can only agree.
>>540603880>No it isn't you jew shill. You don't lose anything when someone pirates your shit, unlike with assault.So if a studio were to spend money making a movie and nobody purchases it, and instead everyone pirates it, they haven't lost anything? Not even anti piracy but you've got to have sub room temp iq to think it doesn't hurt the creators.
>>540602409Alphabetazoomlenials are entitled brown faggots. No skills, no ambition, no fucking value. A war would set these terminally online shitheads straight.
>>540604132To add to this, this is why I don't even engage with these sorts of arguments >JUST BUY A CHEAPER PHONE>EAT AT HOME>BUY A USED PHONE >NO SUBSCRIPTIONS>DON'T PAY FOR A GYMNo, nigger. We shouldn't even be getting in to these cost cutting, penny pinching games. This is America, the so called richest and most profitable country in the world. It's citizens SHOULD be able to afford minor luxuries like eating out or having a nice phone. Pinching every penny to barely make ends meet is, frankly, advice that should be given to poor people in poor countries. Not America. The fact that we're even having these discussions is part of the problem, and it's why the younger generation feels like capitalism and their country have failed them, and it's why they don't care about taking a chance on something different. Because what we have is obviously not working for the vast majority of people who are being told they need to spend money they don't have to keep the economy afloat, but also that they should save money and not waste money on such "luxuries" as a fucking burrito
>>540602625>>540603890Last year I bought a new Moto G 2025 for $25 or so. Besides being a locked phone, it doesn't perform much worse than a $400 iPhone 15 or even $600 16, especially when most people only use phones for social media.
>>540604621>just fight a war for a country that hates you, deliberately shut you out of the job market and economy and wants you dead so you can be replaced by le heckin’ totally skilled and valuable third worlders who will kiss up to jews more No I don’t think I will
>>540602409I have a $50 Android I got at the Dollar General and my food budget has gone up 100+% in the last five years. I make all my own meals out of real food, meat, cheese, produce. Some items I used to buy are up about 150% since that time, or more. I don't eat fast food and buy a burger from a restaurant for lunch maybe 3-5 times a year when I'm traveling. Otherwise I make simple basic meals at home and prices are insane for food. I literally can't afford beef even when it's about to expire and on sale. The grey almost past due raw beef at the store is lie 7-15 dollars a pound and I unironically wouldn't feed it to dogs it looks so bad. The irony is when I do eat a burger from a restaurant it's always a non chain fresh handmade burger place and it's the same cost as McDonalds which is trash GMO meat. One place serves only Angus burgers and it's basically the same price as fast food.
>>540602409Isn't the phone bill a bigger issue? Even a basic $50/month bill is $600 a year.

>>540602937I think most people stopped with regular upgrades around that timeframe.I haven't bought a new phone in over a decade now. I always go 2-3 generations old so they're like $300 but will still get updates for many years to come.Retard shitter also doesn't grasp that financing for phones has become commonplace either. Most people don't own $1400 iPhones. I'd say that guy is being disengenuous, but with how retarded and brainrotten people are nowadays I've come to just assume stupidity off the bat.>>540602409Oh and OP is retarded. I was raised to be frugal and wise with money. I've never financed a car, I don't buy brand new shit in most cases, I eat at home most of the time, I've been a pirate for over 20 years now, and the 1 subscription service I have is YouTube premium for adless YouTube + music and I split it 6 ways between friends and family. Shit is still expensive as fuck. Food alone has gone up at least 50% in the past 6 years. My pay has actually decreased in that timespan & that's not even accounting for inflation. Why are migatards incapable of admitting there's a problem if an R is in the white house? It's fucking embarassing. All they do is deny and move goalposts and then virtue signal to each other. It's like I'm back in 2010 dealing with leftists pretending Obama was the 2nd coming of Christ.
I see both sides. As a fact, people ARE making less money these days. But also as a fact, things are cheaper these days, like appliances, clothing, games, toys. Housing, cars, and food are the main things that are more expensive, but yet they are really foundational to living decently.It's also true that people do spend A LOT of money on shit they they really should not be spending money on. I know several normies, and the amount of money they throw away on useless or overpriced shit is truly staggering. An Iphone is actually a very good example. People get the latest Iphone as a status symbol, that's it. There's genuinely zero legitimate reason to get a new Iphone. I have a $130 motorolla smartphone I got 4 years ago and It still works fine and does everything I need.If you stop being materialistic, and stop being stupid with money, things do get easier. But it seems like a lot of younger people want the materialism that the boomers had, which is weird to me, because they should be eschewing it instead. I'm curious to see if housing prices were lowered to around the 2016 levels, if there would still be all the same complaints as now.
I don't have financial issue, I worked hard for everything I have. May not be riches to others but to me it's mega wealth.
