And they say you can't smell a picture.
i don't know if poetic is the right word, but that is pretty powerful right there! put in the work, get the rewards.
You’re a pussy blaming others for your own problems. Too bad your mom didn’t swallow.
Rules
Speaking of your mom:
so those thingies sticking up are some sort of sight alignment tool, and the blue tape blocks the gas port for flatter recoil?
You have NO failures? None at all? That's either bullshit or you haven't taken any real chances in life.
Which generation's fault?
Thought that this deserved its own thread. Peak boomer here. Historically, republics seem to devolve to oligarchies in 300 years or so--typically due to bankers. So, here we are. Early financialization of the 70s culminated in the repeal of Glass-Steagall under Clinton. Financialization took off...

My children and grandchildren do not have to resort to renting. That would be the victim mentality you possess, and mine will not have it. I have voted since 1998, and never punched the ticket for a single Demonrat.
In 2002 I was making $34k a year. I bought a house for $108k. It was all I could do to pay for it, and I also managed to improve it and add onto it. I bought construction text books and dove in. A 40 hour week is a part time job, as far as I'm concerned. 0600 to 2200 have been my days for as long as I can remember.
In 2013 I bought 70 acres 40 miles north east. 2015 I built a shop. 2019 and 2020 I built a house. I built them. With my own two hands. I sold that first house for triple what I had in it. If I sell where I am now, I will leave a multi-millionare. And I'm not going to apologize to a mentally weak victim like you or anyone else. Because you don't have the spine or the grit to go create it for yourself. I do however teach my children how to create it for themselves.

Poverty in the US is almost universally the result of laziness and/or poor life choices. That's why you see millions of illegals sneaking in, instead of millions of domestic poor sneaking out.

Three Simple Rules Poor Teens Should Follow to Join the Middle Class
Ron Haskins explains research indicating that young people should fulfill three major responsibilities to substantially improve their chances of avoiding poverty and entering the middle class: at least finish high school, get a full-time job and wait until age 21 to get married and have children.

I am not going to call that color "pink" but I agree.
You sum up all that's wrong with much of society. It's called working hard. I was brought up on a poor council housing estate in the UK, I have worked hard, I have a nice house, cars, nice watches, firearms, go on one nice holiday per year and a few weekend breaks in the year, etc. I don't have as much wealth as some, but I have more than others, however, I won't apologise for studying/working hard, that's the problem with many these days, they want but won't work for it.
As long as everyone is choosing, I'll take the one on the front left..........
You said you had NO failures. Now you say you have had them but overcame them. Which is it?
I was kind of with you until this. Same kind of thing happened to me and I'm an old millennial (1983) - Help me understand...
Bought our first house in Austin, Tx in 2009 for $130K. I was in a touring band and waited tables when not on the road. Mortgage & Insurance was $1K . Made improvements, stopped the band life, got a better job, got married, and sold for 160K in 2012
2012 moved out to burbs - new house is $230K - wife got promotions, I got new job that paid more. Sold that house in 2019 for $300K
2019 moved out to a couple acres in the hill country, modest 3/2 2400sq/ft house with a little 1 car detached shop - price was $450K. We are the smallest cheapest house in the hood. I get monthly reports that my house is worth double what I paid for it. Somehow I'm asshole if I don't sell to another millennial for what I paid for it?
Rules:
Yep, all that boomer privilege.Holy shit...all the boomers in here sure are getting riled up because they are finally being held accountable for the first time in their lives...
Man, y'all are so happy seeing your kids and grandkids struggle with the world you left them.....no wonder they don't visit you
My god, you are a whiney little bitch, just stfu already.
The market wasn't "cheap". I already said the house cost 3X what my annual salary was. I'm sure the man I bought the place from made a profit. I remodeled that house myself. I added onto that house myself. And I live in one of the most inbound places in the U.S. North Texas. That county I lived in for 40 years has seen a greater than 1000% increase in population. They ran me out of it. They can keep it. And they paid for their right to stay there. That's what controls the market, not me. It's called supply and demand. It is a thousands year old principle. Maybe you should try to educate yourself on the subject. But, I gather you do not possess the brain power to do so.
Once again, I am not going to apologize for taking advantage of American capitalism. Selling something for less than it is worth is pure stupidity. I sold in the height of the market. I priced it high, and came down once a week. The final buyer made me an offer, and I accepted it. No one held a gun to their heads.
Keep calling every generation "Boomer". It continues to make you look stupid. I already said that's my parents generation.
I'd say national broadcast TV wasn't a small influence.
The propaganda was in nearly every living room by mid-early 60s along with the brain rot it brings.
You guys have no idea what you are doing. @Dirty D is going to open Pandora's Box and wreck violence upon this thread. Pandora is a 400 pound stripper that neither bathes nor shaves. You have been warned. I think even I may have to take a brake for a while and let the bodies lay.
Why don't you guys go play soccer.
No, you're absolutely correct, their influence was huge.......
You’d have to dig deep to find any pink in that photo.
