How Not to Become a Millennial: Learning from America's Largest Sociological Disaster

Description

Never before in the history of the world has more time, effort, and resources been invested into a single generation than the Millennials. Be it incredibly expensive college degrees, perfectly privileged diets, life-coping drugs, uncountable therapist visits, even bending reality so that everybody was impossibly a winner, no expense was spared for the most pampered generation in human history. But $30 trillion and 20 years later we have the biggest failure of a human crop in the history of the world. The Millennials are hopelessly indebted, perennially underemployed, they suffer more mental illness than any generation before them, and they are hopelessly armed with completely worthless degrees. They have absolutely no hope of homeownership, retirement, or family, and most will live their entire lives financially crippled with debt. They are an unmitigated sociological disaster and a tragic chapter in human history.But it doesn't have to be this way. And it doesn't have to end this way for Millennials. Because amongst the wreckage of the Millennial generation that lay in front of all of us right now is a spectacular opportunity. The chance to learn precisely what society did right and what it did wrong when it came to raising our children. The formula for preparing future generations, and thus the secret to the future success of humanity. Because while naive social scientists with their 50 year old "social theories" thought they knew better than 2 million years of human evolution, they unintentionally provided us with proof positive as to what absolutely does and does not work when it comes to economics, sociology, psychology, politics, education, personal finance, or just plain ole child rearing. Thus, with their social science experiment of the Millennials gone horrifically wrong, they’ve accidentally painted the path for humanity as to what could go spectacularly right.Everybody can learn from the pain, suffering, and failure of the Millennials. The secret to success, wealth, happiness and love is laying right in front of us. We just need the courage to think critically, be honest with ourselves, and admit where we as a society have failed. If we have this Come-to-Jesus-Meeting with ourselves, we can spare future generations the fate of the Millennials and give the Millennials themselves a fighting chance to salvage what remains of their lives. We owe it to future generations and it’s the least we can do for America’s most-tortured generation - The Millennials.
