Does anyone else find that this current generation of young people (30 and under) and even some older people, lack any desire to save money or invest?
I work with many people who save zero, have no retirement, and when offered unpaid time off, they take it. Many of them average 32-35 hours a week because of their addiction to leaving early.
Needless to say, very few of these people are homeowners and most drive beater cars.
I've asked many of them about this, and their response is usually "I work to live, I don't live to work, etc."
I on the other hand lead a group of people we call at work, the "overtime ballers." Some of us working 100+ hour weeks during the holiday season. But the our group is small and most people simply do not want to work.
Young people, do you have similar experiences with co-workers?
