My generation got fried for our 20s. My parents who are " boomers " not saying that as a meme, talked about how much fun their 20s were and they were so care free and they all moved out at 18 and 20. My generation at 20 or 18, got smashed with a pandemic, we were stuck inside for about 2 and a half years, im in canada housing prices are a mess even rent is unbelievable, so many jobs are taken and gone, so many people have gone to school are in debt and theres no work after post secondary. If you do have a job the juice is barely worth the squeeze companies want max profit while they abuse workers. The older generations had fun dating while we have to deal with tinder and instagram brain rotted partners where " there could be somone better " always out there and no one can pick partners.
Hit the nail on the end. It’s the same in Ireland. Everyone works 9-5 has no time for anything, drink every weekend glorifying bad habits. I’m 25 and never see any couples my age that look like they’re last. Housing prices, crime, immigration, social media addiction ruined damn near everything. The amount of peers mt age who just refuse to work and instead become neets is beyond me, but you know what? I don’t blame them at all. IT sector jobs asking for 5+ experience out of college, and poor salaries. Not even worth being a developer anymore
I'm 26 and I feel you. I haven't moved out of my parents yet. I went to college and changed my degree multiple times, but finally landed on Computer Science, and I'm currently a Software Developer as well. My girlfriend lives with my parents and I. It's pretty stressful sometimes not having that independence with her, but the cost of living is so insane, and she is still going to college. I haven't struggled with finding a purpose, but everything feels pointless. It seems like no matter how much money I'll make, it won't be enough to live and retire
I absolutely love this channel. This reminds me of Woodysgamertag Mail Mondays. Damn! I miss those days! The nostalgia your videos add is immense and your commentary is relatable. I’m 27 myself and I find myself reflecting on the earlier years of adulthood. Cheers bro!
Yeah man I’m only 21 and I already feel like so much has changed since 18. At 18 was when I decided to leave my parents to get an apartment bc they were pressuring me to go to college. 19 was spent drugged out and partying. 20 was when I started thinking about my purpose and the long term. Now 21 soon to be 22 back at UW-Whitewater online while working full time for a bachelors in finance. The 20s are definitely hard but we all gotta start somewhere. The real fear is knowing whether or not there will be job openings post-college
I’m glad I’m not the only one who stresses. I’m 24 and have only just thought of a career prospect I might want to follow. Been in retail the whole time since school. I always miss my childhood. The games we played. The fun we had. But I’m still happy now most of the time. Just stressed. I have an amazing girlfriend and good family etc. just don’t want to fail
To all the guys in their 20s, I see you. It’s not easy, but that’s okay. Life was never meant to get or be easy. In any video game, things get harder the longer you go on, but the reward for overcoming the challenges is far greater than the struggle. Keep pushing, know you’re loved, and know you’re way more capable than you give yourself credit for
I'm loving these videos. I like just hearing you talk about your life and who you are and how you've decided to mature. It's also refreshing to hear other people share thoughts that relate with others including myself.
I’m 26, live with parents, which I love, have a partner and have money behind to move out… but I don’t want to. The cost of literally everything just puts me off moving out because I know that basically living is going to be a struggle, when it never used to be. Would honestly much rather travel as much as I can before being pinned down by a mortgage.
Pretty much hit the nail. Much more responsibility with more on the line. I find myself comparing to those who are already already successful at a young age and it eats me up even though I’m 20. Already have a full time job while being a full time college student already some what burnt out of doing a job that I don’t want but now I got bills, savings etc. If anything it just motivates me even more to work for myself and start a business and career I like. As I also get older I see how much more the world is a fucked up place and how a lot of people are faulty and messy, there’s a lot more bad out in the world then good. I live in California LA so it’s pretty much 5 x worse here haha but it’s a cold world social media just pretty much exposed that even more and normalized it.
Have you thought about interviewing people in their 20s ? hearing their problems, life issues, and then discussing those things, you could perhaps give advice and share your perspective, I think it would be an interesting idea. I can be your first guess is you'd like haha, I'm 22 years old currently finishing college and having the exact problems your talking about in the video, idk just a thought. :)
haha somewhat related to this topic, check back in for my upload tomorrow :) For sure considering interviewing people in the future, just not quite yet. It is a good idea though
hey brother im 21 and can relate. living with my dad right now after trying to live on my own. Cost of living is wayyy to high right now. im currently paying off debt as well and trying to build credit
Also 28, long time coming. Things are only now becoming possible. Takes time, it sucks, I’m not gonna say don’t lose hope but at least find someone or something to find peace in it with

wow, mw2 gameplay and existential crisis commentary, I love this youtube genre.
Legendary
Figuring everything out seems to mean Having a life partner, a house, and kids. That doesn’t happen in your 20s nowadays.
You mean in the US sure.. in canada (not in the biggest cities) it’s totally feasible
@@KimKitsuragi884 you must not be from Canada.
@@AustinPowers96 yes i’m from canada, i just dont live in an urban area
yeah seems less and less common. At 28 I'd say the first "group" of friends are getting married, but the vast majority aren't

Feel the exact same dude!

Thank you :) I actually have an announcement somewhat relating to Mail Mondays, so stay tuned
Holy crap I was going to say the same thing. The amount of hours I spent watching woodysgamertag with mw3 is insane

Needed this video I’m 26, still play MW2 regularly on series X. Seems we’re all in crisis 😂 big love mate. Keep on winging it!!
I wonder if you can still find lobbies i mean i couldnt find a lobby on mw2 og on x box 360 i was searching for an half hour
@@Alyciapurrot there’s normally 3 or 4 full search and destroy lobbies

I feels good hearing someone say this.

The fact that everything that we learn in childhood is a lie.
As well as the vital information not told to us
it's true, we definitely were misled in many ways but we gotta keep going
Happy revolution brother. The best is yet to come.
Thank you!
