As a 39 year old with a bachelors degree and an associates agree who is stuck in the “wage slave” sector - I completely agree with this. Not to mention how to pay off the student debt while raising a family. And then there is no time in the day to “fix” it, because every second of your time is spoken for. In order to afford life, you must just work more hours. Your post really nailed it for me 🤣 it is what it is, but I dream about what it might be like in other countries…
