I only have a bachelor’s degree, I’m in Europe so no dept, I made enough right after college to live on my own. I definitely don’t need to get a second job or move in with my parents. What am I doing wrong?
Same here. Went to trade school, working at construction since I was 21, bought my first car around the same time, bought house at 25. Now at 30+ I got like 80k€ left on my mortage and no other loans. Around +50k€ in savings mostly invested into index funds. I could be doing better but I can’t complain. Recently started my own bussines so we’ll see how that goes.
My only friend I keep hearing the type of complaints from that I read about on lemmy every day went to photography school but is an aspiring painter/artist now instead. For some reason money’s tight and it’s because of capitalism apparently. Go figure…
Here’s your big trick. I used it too, the whole “buy a house when the market was affordable” method is nice, but to replicate when you were spent the last housing crash learning to write instead of earning money…
I got mine at a little bit of a deal at the time at $75k in… 2016?, if only I had bought it in 1990 when I was 3 but it would have sold for $15k or some shit.
No amount of radical activism will significantly change the political landscape in most EU nations. In fact, the activism is on the rise, and yet far right is winning big time. Soon in your EU parliament and bye-bye combustion cars ban. Expect abortion bans instead.
And we aren’t even talking about the fact that most pollution now happens in countries that would be impossible to change to sincere green policies. Although the EU supply chain initiative is a step in the right direction, and yet just a drop in the bucket.
Your species are gone. And so are about a few billions of people in the developing world. The timer is some 10-30 years (90% prediction interval).
Exactly what am I supposed to do? My radical proposal is we develop some infertility drug and start putting it into the waterways. Do you know enough biochemistry? I’ll be the driver.
On a different topic, instead of recycling my plastic bottles, I shredd them and flush them into the toilet. In the name of humanity and species diversity.

“Because I don’t experience a thing personally (or just have head up rectum), everyone who does is a liar!” 🙄
Not even remotely accurate interpretation of what I said.
Not enough radical activism to save the species?
(This is also a self-criticism)
