    It used to pay well. People used to buy big houses and earn pensions, and get a new car every 5 years or less.

    Man oh fucking man, have times changed. No new cars, no houses at all… We’re lucky to get a decent rental that doesn’t go up more than $100 a year.

    Goods are skyrocketing in price, LLM’s are taking jobs away, Healthcare costs are skyrocketing, wages are way, way, WAY below what they should be… I could keep going, but this is enough depressing things in one paragraph.
