Practically speaking, this means entry level jobs for a “middle” class career track are now only available to those whose parents can cover rent/commute/work supplies costs. If you can’t lean on intergenerational wealth, you’re screwed.

America is going to get used to multigen homes just like 3rd world counties have to do.

been there for years now. as I was reading articles about how "young people are moving back in with their parents!!1!" it was actually my parents moving back in with me. As I was reading articles about "young people are financially irresponsible!!!11!!" I was covering my parents' bills. As I was reading articles about how "young people splurge on treats!!!!1!" I was budgeting for a household with 3 generations. It makes me sick the way the media talks about working class people, especially young people. I'm not even "young" any more so I see the vitriol leveled against millenials now getting leveled against zoomers.
