You're not exactly selling adulthood to the young readers here...

Excellent. Adulthood sucks a lot, avoid it if at all possible.

There is the having money part.

[–] Sunfoil 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not necessarily, most people probably have less money than when they were at school if you think about it

I don't know, I never got money for going to school like I do for going to work.

But you also didn't have debt when you were at School. Most people these days are in the red, making them technically poorer than a school kid with a 20 in their pocket.

I've got debt but I'm also building wealth and saving money for my children's educations. I wish I could say I felt that was going to get them ahead but at this rate that might just keep the status quo.
