I'd wager my savings

Well if you're like most sub 35yr olds, that's not a big wager at all.

That's a really depressing statistic. I wish we could get everyone under 40 to vote differently, but I don't think we can.

I'm always really disturbed when I see how much value and assets and savings I am supposed to have...

Like depressed too but really fucking disturbed that neither I nor basically anyone I know except once rich kid who his parents paid for everything while he got a $200,000 a year coding job have any legitimate savings or plans to be able to grow it.

And it's not like I haven't been working for the last 2 decades since I was 14.
