Beyond the realms of your own little tent, many millions of young people are currently entrenched within their own comfortable bedrooms, thinking that they have a good life.
If you don't see a crisis in that fact, then you're not the genius you may have considered yourself to be.

No one put a downpayment on a home or helped me pay for school. Wedding? Kids? Can't afford it. I've got too much debt and the cost of living is too high for me to get on top of it.
