It’s interesting to me that the generation of get rich quick schemes is having this problem. It’s a dilemma for sure. I remember some of these same types always impressing on me the importance of hard work and saving. The grasshopper and the ant parable and not jumping off bridges just because your friends are doing it.

Just amazes me because liberals that taught me about caring and mindfulness are the ones who are resistant to the scammers in their old age. And the ones who claimed to be conservative and financially responsible are the ones with mortgages and complaints about how they are going to have hardships with retirement.

Learning from their failures is all we can do. Try to prepare the next generation for dealing with this new reality.
