Too exhausted to grab images but...

  • The amount I spent on college versus the amount that they spent on college

  • their pension versus my pension

  • cost of their home versus cost of my home

  • amount of adults in their household that had to work to support a family versus amount of adults in my household that have to work to support a family

  • Their CEO pay gap versus my CEO pay gap

  • number of summers where they took a week-long family vacation versus number of summers that I took a week-long family vacation

  • cost of a family trip to Disney for them versus no fucking way I could even consider affording that shit, let alone paying an overall subscription for quicker lines and somehow also individual extra charges per ride to get on those rides in less than three hours.
