What exactly are they suggesting, and what about feeling miserable and hopeless do they think is exclusive to them. It's called living ffs.
They know they will retire at 35 or whatever, so how about complete high school, go to University, or learn a trade? People change careers in their 40's or 50's. It is on people to adjust to life and circumstance. I agree there. It's as though a person has no agency. You can invest and live a life of leisure or educate yourself or get a job. It is not so complicated.
