Why Gen Z Doesn't Want to Work Regular Jobs & Is Giving Up
Gen Z is currently completely lost attempting to navigate the modern world. A generation with no purpose, no meaning in life, distracted and addicted. This is generation is constantly faced with the question... "whats the point".
The regular 9-5 path is no longer viable however there are two other options....

I told all high school kids that they are the first generation that can’t retire nor buy a house. I also told them that we’ll see some sort of change in the next 10 years and that we’re basically on deadtime till then. This was about 7-8 years ago. Few knew of this but most just laughed. I hope those that did listen aren’t as screwed as the others.
Dead time? So what’s coming in the next 2-3 years?

@@melindagallegan5093 The silver wave...
I’m 32. Started worked at 18, the wages are all pretty close to back then but everything is 2-5x more expensive now. It’s depressing
Witnessing the complete stagnation of post-WW2 Western prosperity....
I'm in my 40s and also fully approve this msg!
" okay X'er " haha
Generally speaking, Gen Z and Alpha wont be able to afford $h!t no matter how hard they work... on the contrary they will be in debt to the max
It's a sad reality. This is even affecting mid to late millennials.
You gotta choose the other two options

@@nuccichannel there is NO OPTIONS: there is no bootstraps, hard work is not rewarded, and worse, the elder generations DO NOT WANT TO CARE.
We will not gonna swim - we will drain the river by refusing to offer our pointless effort to keep it full.

I'm a 25 year old plumber. I'm going to start a one man band plumbing company. That's my way out
Best of luck man
The problem people don't understand is that simply moving out has also become unaffordable. Flights and accommodations have become so expensive that we literally get stuck where we were born and moving would take such a huge risk that we would probably also be jobless wherever we go.
So basically, the american drem is dead.
.......yup
Not my dad boomer. He's now disabled after doing everything right and all of his money goes to healthcare.
I'd say the best route for me is finding a way to make $3-$4K USD a month remotely and move to a country in southeast Asia, Latin America, or southern Europe. They also got really nice women abroad which is a bonus. I also could care less about the materialistic lifestyle offered by western countries.
Very good lifestyle
You can most definitely achieve this online if you apply yourself for a year or two
I work remote and saving money isn't a problem anymore. Commuting or paying extortionate rent for a shoe box are for fools.
@@nuccichannelYeah that what I was thinking. It is very possible with under
@@SK-yb7bxNice. What did you do to get to the point of working remotely?
Damn! I must be Gen Z … never realized at age 53 how accurate LOL it fits me
dude your fucking profile picture does NOT look 53!!! You must be doing something right if you look that young
Lol 😂 57 here n I was thinking the same thing 😅
lol think that’s a picture from 2006 when I signed up for UA-cam
Great presentation bro! I'm 24...didn't go to college/university....made alot of people close to me disappointed and confused..but now those same people come to me and say you made the right choice by not going. I'm planning to get out of Canada soon and move to somewhere in Asia. I grew up in Vancouver...and been living in Calgary since 2020. Can't say it's better than Vancouver...however it's slightly more cheaper..but like everywhere else in canada it's still unaffordable. I saw this economic crises coming back when I was 17 and when I talked about it with people..everyone was either drinking, having s*x, or chasing girls. So glad I realized it early because most of my high school graduation class have now graduated from college/university with mountains of student loan debt, no job that's related to their field of study, if they're working it's mostly Retail minimum wage which doesn't help with paying off the debt, and sadly alot of them have moved back living with their parents. They are very doomed and don't have the option of moving to a different country since they have these debts they have to pay back. It's heartbreaking and nonsense that we have to live like this. I'm Gen Z and I always get frustrated when I hear older people calling us lazy. They hardly understand what living in these circumstances feels like.
I was glad my son decided not to, they never REALLy Wanted college for peasants, it was separate the *important* people's kids from the unwashed masses spawn. They'll loan the money but it's just another trap. Used to be you needed a scholarship or grant, something tangible to shoe you were going to be useful in some capacity
Get out while you're young, you made the right choice.
@@ennuiblue4295 My university tried to convince me to take out student loans but I refused and took less classes since I knew my mental capacity and I did not want to spend crazy amounts of money on tuition.
exactly. a whole facade of 'easy life' with all the digital technologies, etc. But the psychological weight is unprecedented! Build up your business. Or at the very least, marketable skills
You missed the drugs part lol sex booze and drugs. Glad you were smart enough to see the writing on the wall. Best of luck friend. ✌🏼
Nice - can’t wait to leave Canada forever.
It's your home buddy
@@hermanmelville3368 Was. Its only your home if you feel at home.
Poor Canada's government, they make so much effort to attract immigrants, while the citizens themselves want to leave. 😂
Best decision we ever made, life is so much better. Good luck friend 🤞🏼✌🏼
Boomers need us to work so we keep serving them while paying into services they use and into their pensions that we will never receive when or if we are able to retire.
It's great to be born into a generational pyramid scheme, isn't it?
@@DuncanL7979Oh, not really.
This is the best explanation I've ever seen on YT. You're goddamn right! I absolutely agree with the idea that the modern way of working doesn't work anymore for Gen Zs and Millennials. We need to come up with smth else to make cash 🤔
yup
In this day and times ....nobody should be making less than $1,200 a week otherwise you're going to suffer
bare minimum
USD, EUR, GBP earners who work remotely in different countries may be able to live lavishly but they also in turn increase the cost of living for the locals there.
Exactly! Gentrification isnt fair on the locals.
I did exactly what he said. Left Canada for Thailand when I was 21. Earning $100K-$190K USD doing freelance work without half going to taxes while living in a cheap, great country. Best move I ever made!
There you have it.
@@nuccichannel if you ever decide to make a move, let me know if I can help.
Hey, I do remote work currently but I’m wondering how you do freelancing? Is it through Upwork
@@swish2761 im a freelancer for the oil and gas industry doing subsea inspections of assets.
@@swish2761 star making content about your work and then dm people from the page you make content. People will start coming to you and you will have endless clients.
You nailed it Adam. Times have changed and not for the best for younger people. In my worplace, there are two types of Gen Z: hardworking and "don't give a fuck". The hardworking ones make an effort in learning the trade and to be an asset to the team, our employer takes good care of hard working people. The other type just gets canned. I also noticed that Gen z is not into drinking as much as older generations. But ya! Cost of living is ridiculous to say the least. JT put our country into a silent depression. And yup! I will be retiring abroad myself.
Ur employer rewards hard work n loyalty? Must be nice to find and work at the only business in America that does that.
Can't blame their apathy, resentment, and refusal to work hard at all anymore. They are gaslighted snd disrespected by the system at every single angle
The hard working ones will be let go as soon as lay off begins anyway.
@@Landstalker1999 bingo. They no longer invest or care about any non top level employees.
Honestly taking a stand and not participating is going to end up being the best move. Eventually corporations will be forced to pay living wages or go under. 35 yr old millenial who is learning art because f*** the death grind
He forgot to mention that when Gen Zs arecworking away, these companies will either lay you off, or you havecto job hop to try ramp up your income. These constant changes up the anxiety and alos, it costs in the short term to keep moving and shuffling.
One of my theories is people now get degrees in what used to be considered 'elective' classes. It may be cool as knowledge, a hobby, or general information, but they're not degrees you can get actual employment with. Just another pet peeve of mine 😏
this is not a theory, this is fact lol
Facts 👌🏼💯
We are blessed to be here in Mexico. The wife still works online but we have a much better quality of life.

You nailed it. I was running in place in Canada due to a variety of factors. I was in a position where I could leave and work remotely so I moved to Panama. Lower cost of living on top of having a territorial tax system (so no income tax paid) and I am laughing now. I should be able to retire very comfortably in the next 10-15 years if things go to plan.
nice, good move
Bro I almost 40 and after 10 years in trucking I can tell you this is true...you either need to drive across the country and spend time away from home or haul heavy stuff which is super stressful in most areas. People say get skills, Class A, get a education, spent 5 years following my schooling...did what I'm suppose to do at 21...it changes...then throw in something like COVID and your secure job isn't so secure. Thing is 40 rolls around and I've ended up in the same place.
Yo your videos are so helpful. I been doing exactly that researching on moving to thailand or costa rica and starting a business. This video kinda put everything together
Thanks!
Can’t wait to leave canada forever
Well put Adam.
40k can also provide you with a comfortable life in South America, even in a big city like São Paulo.
YUP
With 40k in Eastern Europe you are 1% earner, no joke
I'm just waiting for my Boomer parents to kick off and give me my inheritance.
I plan to never work in my adult life if I do it right! 😎👍
I often explain this as the reason for a boom in “creatives” and “alternate” paths kids are trying to take. Old heads think they’re just obsessed with an easy check or computers/digital world but the flip side is why wouldn’t you try to gamble on innovative ideas even if they all fail? If one takes off you may possibly find respite from zero hope. If nothing works out for your 900 business ideas you’re right back where you would be: working a dead end job you hate for no benefit and growing debt. May as well shoot for the stars every day if there’s no consequences different between 20 years of loyal service to a company and 0.
exactly
This should have millions of views for best presentation of the reality.
Great video. Love it
4:31 I'm sorry but if you can't get by on an 80k salary that's on you. 80k after taxes is like 4.5k a month. Live with roommates, don't spend recklessly, manage your budget in a smart way and you'll be able to save 1-2k a month and invest it.
Sounds boring....
@@nuccichannel very true
$80k isn't a lot in most major metro areas anymore. The USD lost over 20% of its value in 24 months recently with the spike in inflation. Taxes also went up too under Biden due to the sunsetting of tax cuts. The dollar isn't worth what it used to be, get used to that reality. In most of the tier 1 metro areas in the USA you need ~$96k to live comfortably alone in an apartment.
Exactly Gen Z , bypass everything , move on and get settled in the streets now , why wait ? There is no such thing as easy money. They will learn eventually.
Gen Z and Millennials have the same outcome it seems. Its just one group never got anything hope to begin with and the other had it slowly snuffed out as they grew.
The nothing option seems like a trap but can also inspire the un-lazy to gain experience to develop their own business or Idea or to better their life.
It does depend on attitude and motivation to have a dream.
Nice video as always. Cheers!
exactly. lit a fire under my ass about 10 years ago. Life is good now
thanks!
4:30
yoooo da fuk ..... it go down (no it dont) oh shit it do, it do go down. N O T H I N G BRUH.
Living overseas is a good option, it may take some time to build some investments to help fund the move, but it’s worth it
Rent is reasonably cheap in various EE countries or Balkans as well, especially when you avoid the capital cities. Examples: Hungary, Serbia, Croatia
If the reward does not add up then what is the alternative? No work and no pay and live off other people or your parents?
Side hussles are also an option such as recycling plastic bottles cansn& glass bottles
Big factuals
Another good video
9:09 “Attention = dollars” is a new phenomenon. Production must precede predation. Where is the money coming from to support this so-called “attention economy”? Attention is entirely unproductive wasteful consumption. That’s not sustainable.
Moving to a lower living cost (aka cheaper) country ....soon 😊
Best of luck 🤞🏼
Best decision we ever made. ♥️
@@2GringosOnTheGulf thank you. I already did it 25 years ago and no regrets. Unfortunate reality is the chosen (temporary) new home/country has changed in crazy ways over the last few years and no longet aligns. I am excited for the new adventure ahead just have to hang on for a little bit right now for various reasons
I hope more people see the so I'm here boosting. Maybe someone who can do something about this might see it. This sux nowadays.
5:02 What subsidized housing?! That won’t exist. You won’t have a home to sit in.
great analysis and commentary on today
ai will reduce options further
for those who do master ai the rewards are bigger
for low value work, the future looks gloomy
3:08 Affording food and rent so that you can continue being alive is not nothing.
You missed the part about going to college for a minimum of 4 years, not gaining real-life job experience and not making money during that time. Plus the student debt.
wow i feel better
I feel like... being born in family with assets just removes the issue. But for the rest.... oh man we need to do something wtf. We wont be living 😢
I’m Gen Z and I approve of this message 💯
The real question is how to make money remotely?
Loved the video! Fortunately, I got a $20,000 inheritance, but the only things I could think to do with it were stock market or bitcoin. I went with the stock market and made $3000 in a year which is hard in your first year, I made most of it with NVDA, which is an AI stock and unless you've been living in a cave, have not heard of it. I'm going to start a UA-cam channel also. Looking forward to more of your videos. Lots of problems younger people have is their boomer parents who insist you do it their way or you are out of the house. I'm 44 and still dealing with that shit. The only reason I think I stick around is because of my 10 year younger siblings and my niece/nephew.
The only problem is that cheap countries like Thai are becoming more and more expensive thanks to all these digital-remote working hipsters. I mean there are many cheap places around the world, but no hipsta whats to go to Sudan or Kazakhstan. Hispta wants to live in Phuket or Bali driving the cost of living in these places up 😁
Ripping all these shamelessly rich oldies for cash sounds like far more viable option 😎
Where are you??? Why did you stop posting videos???
Bruh, that diagram is A1 😂
it's called a flow chart, great in business to execute on projects :)
Well let me go to work and put up with the boss.. so I can barely get enough for the week, br stressed and then do it for 4 weeks repeatedly over and over again till I can have enough for the end of the month for rent and everything in between.. not including children and taxes..how it should be is you work one or two weeks out of the month and rent is paid, you work the other two weeks all the other stuff is paid
yup
Work or don't work ya you end up with the same thing anyway when you turn 65 or whatever. Some government pension and a subsidized apartment or government run nursing home. The best reason to work is at least you can save some left over money to invest into bitcoin or stocks or whatever. Something that has the potential to make you a lot more money down the line. But if you're just gonna go down the standard 9-5 route, with some average Joe job and afraid to take any chances than ya you'll end up in the exact same place as the person who basically didn't even bother working.
ANYONE UNDER 40 OR 45 LEARN ABOUT AI, ITS THE FUTURE NOW. IF YOU HAVE NO APTITUDE DEVELOP ONE. CHEERS AND STAY RELEVENT
Little bit doom and gloom and oversimplified but it's mostly accurate. My advice to the new younger generation is to get a solid trade, plumber, pipefitter, mechanic, electrician etc. The immigration in Canada is unsustainable and many of the new immigrants are turning out to not actually be doctors and lawyers. In demand trades are at all-time highs and many of these trades you can be paid to learn now, take that trade and arbitrage into your own business or stay in a union job and build the boomer life just at a slower pace. There is always a way and always an angle if you are hardworking and want to succeed, the world is surely changing from what our parents and grandparents had but for those of us willing to put in the work its still possible.
you know what? You're right.
All beanie guys are bald underneath and its all hair loss copium😂
Bro haha look at my other videos, full savage head of hair. It’s because the light I use blasts the exposure on my pale ass forehead. Trying figure this one out haha
Gen X here. It isn't much better for us X'ers or the millenials.
Old people, mostly boomers, wonder why Gen Z doesn't want to work. It is because there just isn't any real reward.
I can understand the Gen Z frustration because even if you DO take that path of working, there is constant worry about AI or robots taking your job. Of course low wage stressful jobs - the thought of AI taking over might not be so bad.
You Forgot Another Option, UBI.
The same could be said for milenals
You need to add inheritance in your diagram. Gen Z stand to inherit insane amount of wealth. Not all is lost for some. Also, forget about moving out, live with parents and put away all that money you would waste on rent. There are still options out there.
Next do milenals
So guy goes to Thailand und buys a Lambo in 3 years
😃😃😃😂😁
cus u cant survive from them
Gen Z will inherit money.

(Gen X here) Instead of complaining of all the doom-speak; I decided to crunch numbers for myself. Cheap rural house cost about $1200 a month, which means you need to earn about $70k a year. That's doable without a degree, but not for free. Find a union shop that supports livable wages, become a police officer, go into IT, look into "the trades", etc. Once you have a foot in the door... Keep looking for higher paying jobs, building your resume, etc. Don't give up and don't buy into stupid dreams. If you start a business (including content creation) do it on the side. In fact that can support the bills if you get fired. You don't need to move outside the USA, you don't need to be born rich, and you don't have to believe all the doom-speak.
As Canadians, complaining about salary is a bit much. We all come from a place of privilege. If you earn $60,000 a year, you're in the richest 1% percent of the world's population. We should be more grateful.
"1% of the worlds population" is irrelevant due to variations in cost of living in different locations.
All this logic only applies to average normies. If you are ambitious enough to pursue a career that can earn 200k+ per year like high ticket sales, doctor, lawyer, senior software engineer, then you don't have to be screwed. For normies, humbling yourself to live with your parents for several years and saving 100% of the money from your job instead of splashing it on a fancy new car, apartment, etc when your broke ass clearly can't afford it will go a long way. Will it hurt your chances of getting laid temporarily? Maybe. Thats apparently too high of a cost to pay for most of Gen Z
Victims going to find a way to be victims
If they work, they can still enjoy more of what life has to offer rather than worrying about the future. I think home prices will go down. You say that Gen z will work and work and have nothing?? What will they have if they dont work? LOL And the young men wonder why all the girls want to date older men. Life is what you make of it, Gen z gives up before trying then complains they have no money.wonk I know many people who get by on less than 60K a year and Im in LA. There are many cheaper areas to live in the US where you can live well with 60K a year MANY PLACES, smaller towns You dont need to move to a cheaper country. LOL. . Its possible, but gen z gave up instead of being resourceful. Its only doom and gloom if you accept that. If you love your job its not "work" and its great to contribute to society and have something to be proud of. It can be rewarding. I just dont see any future for you all if you dont work at all. I do understand you feel the world will end (maybe it will), but if you do nothing and it doesnt end... you end up with nothing and no ones gonna support you when you wake up? Try to find a job you love.
these rants are exquisite.
Well said Sir ! (Guess that's why Auto Theft for Example has become a $$$Billion Dollar Grow Industry in Today's Canada.)
Dude, are you still complaining about living in Canada and still living in Canada? I thought you were moving to Florida. I guess you never followed up to materialize your dream. Many moons (months) ago you said you were going to recreate your life in the USA. Sad to see you are still living and complaining about Canada.
Hmmm you're the one who's wrong here. I believe he said he would leave Canada within a few years but he couldn't do it right away which sounds perfectly reasonable. Why are you so judgmental?
Yea I mentioned in that video it would take me about two years to relocate my business down there on an E2 investors visa. That is still the plan.
