So financially speaking, are you succesfull?

>>61183496 (OP)
zoomers are the only ones who comprehend the severity of (((inflation)))
goylennials are still living in an era where being a "millionaire" meant anything

>inb4 "LOL stupid zoomers"
no, they have the lived experience understanding of how little the US dollar can get you these days.

>>61183555
TikTok rizzlers all think they’re gonna make 1m/year streaming or influencing like the blue haired parasites they watch all day

>>61183565
No, they just don't understand the concept of shopping around, bartering, and paying shit as absolutely legally late as possible.

>shopping around
the more you look the worse the options seem to get
>bartering
when do you ever barter in the US except for when you beg your future boss not to undercut you completely during salary negotiations (you only get to barter when it benefits "them"
>and paying shit as absolutely legally late as possible.
wow! what a money winning strategy. Thanks Mr. Boomer!

Half the zoomers they polled were 12 years old, had never had a job, and their entire concept of 'success' is from watching tiktoks where everyone is streaming from a rented mansion, drives a rented car, goes to comped restaurants, and wears clothing brands that they've sold out to. They've certainly never had any direct experience of the cost of things or inflation. Influencer and engagement culture has warped zoomzoom's conception of reality more than any millennial/x/boomet can begin to imagine.

I’m a zoomer and if I made what zoomers think I need to make I’d pay off my mortgage in a year.

>they're not ACTUALLY rich, they're ACTUALLY poor and in debt like me!!
insane cope

>>61183596
>what are income taxes

>>61183496 (OP)
networth wise yes
salarie wise big fucking no

>>61183607
I factored that in. I also factored in my current living expenses, but not all the $20k vacations to france and $300 dinners I’d have to start paying for if I made that much money.

>>61183606
None of them claimed to be rich you illiterate retard. shut up more often.

>>61183496 (OP)
If the US dollar was still backed by gold, the median worker would have a purchasing power closer to $500K than to today's number.

>>61183606
yes, just like the entire crop of influencers of yesterday who got exposed for all the rented crap

Zoomers will never own a home.
I was so surprised to hear it being said on CNBC.
>zoomers are priced out of home ownership so they turned to crypto

>>61183606
What? I have 15M from trading crypto. If you're already rich you usually have better things to do than wiggle in front of a camera for clicks, and you don't want the attention anyways because durably rich people don't want to stick out. I'm not saying every rich-looking cunt on tiktok is actually poor, but 95%+ are. And to the extent most of them have money, it's from initially larping as a rich/successful person to farm clicks and rake in ad revenue. Regardless, depictions of rich people (real or fake) drive the algo magnitudes more than depictions of middle class people do, which is my real point. Zoomzooms are overwhelmed with absurdly overdone depictions of success from their feeds and most have no irl experience to counter it with, so their expectations are completely distorted.

>180k
Am I a millenial?
And fuck no I am not (yet)

>>61183596

>>61183496 (OP)
If you depend on a salary you're not successful.
