Yeah I would say us millenniums have it pretty gud

You could've just studied the ACT/SAT and gotten free rides anywhere. I spent four years tutoring close to 100 people and would regularly see score increases from the average 19/20 to low 30s. One kid went from a 22 to a 36 after taking it four times (about $80), which is a point higher than I even got taking it twice.

But you could just write walls of self-pity on an internet message board instead, I guess.

>>14187907
>Now i can see why you guys get bitched at so much by boomers
because they dont want to put any work in like you put across. they just want to finish their 4 years of school, get thrown into a job and work their for the rest of their lives, being given promotions just for existing.

>bbbut thats how it was for boomers!
t'bh they just ignorant as fuck and have zero idea how the world works. i thought university students were meant to be smart?

>>14185922
Hey it could be worse. You could be me, finish 4 years of college with 100k+ debt and wind up in a wageslave job.

>>14185221

Spent over $30k on tools in last two years. Starting to see solid results. Getting lots of loyal business.

If you can't make money you're making fucking excuses. Hell, 4chan in itself is a coping/procrastination tool to distract yourself from the fact that you aren't doing anything to better yourself. Same with videogames/internet in general.
