[disykat]

I "hate" that it's so easy to focus on it to the detriment of other things.

 

[Maistre Gracey]

The worry about supporting your family if something goes wrong.

 

[codylam]

my hate about money is constantly wanting to spend it and never having enough money to spend it

 

[MrsPete]

I hate listening to co-workers who eat out every night complaining that the end of the month paycheck is so far away.

 

[Dive Bar Casanova]

Unaffordable to eat out anymore.

 

[shh]

I hate how discouraging it is now to secure a safe retirement. No pension or other safe income. Questionable future for the little that social security gives. Low wages that don't come close to keeping pace with inflation. Skyrocketing insurance, rent, groceries. A treadmill to nowhere.

When I was a child I visited the old schoolhouse at Knotts Berry Farm.
Framed on the back wall was the requirements for employment as a teacher.
One of the requirements was for the teacher to save 5% of their pay for retirement.

Opening minutes in the Movie Saturday Night Fever the paint store boss lectured employee John Travolta about retirement: "Don't say ____ the future, the future ____ you!

I've held those thoughts. I think the Zoomer generation thinks let the system rot. They can't keep up any more.

But I digress, no politics please!

 

[PolymerSkywalker]

I hate that people don’t understand that if you want a comfortable future, for most of us this will mean sacrifices today.

The demographics that buy from Starbucks the most seem to be the same people that complain that they can’t make their ends meet. Step one, stop paying $8 for sugary coffee.

One of the old bartenders at the Marlin Club regretted he had no 401K or retirement, then showed me his Apple watch.

 

[Neapolitan Ice Cream]

Unscrupulous credit card lenders, who shall remain nameless. They suck you in with an easy £1,000 credit limit, quickly up you to "gold" status and an overdraft of £3,000 and suddenly you're in a cycle of debt. They don't check that you are able to afford the repayments or anything. They just take your money in ever increasing amounts.
