As financial fears mount, some Americans are "doom spending," or spending money despite their economic and geopolitical concerns, as a way to cope with stress.
Lol. Remember how many boomers lost their jobs and then lost their homes back in 2006-2011 because they had no savings and had been doom spending since back in the 80s when Reagan promised trickle-down economics would mean free money for everyone forever?
And then those same boomers who previously could afford a house, cars and still live comfortably now took all the low paying jobs meant for millenial highschool and college students? And then had the nerve to blame those same millenial highschoolers and broke college students (the kids they raised and told to go into debt for half their life) that they were lazy because they couldnt find a demeaning minimum wage job like shoveling shit that they themselves would rather starve than do?
And on top of that blamed the same highschoolers and college students for buying “luxuries” like coffee or avocado toast when at that same age were buying gaudy crap they didnt need because they were bored?
And voted for the shitshow of a world we have now willingly because they were so insecure someone with brown skin might have a trinket they don’t that they consistently voted to make sure no one but them could have anything nice ever?
In the process of fucking everyone else over they willingly fucked themselves, their children, their grandchildren and even great grandchildren harder then they ever thought imaginable. It’d be hilarious except they’re still doing it and blaming the very people they are fucking over for their continually poor decisions. And now they’re dying poor and destitute from healthcare costs thanks to a life of poor decisions and saying “how could everyone we insulted, assaulted, and harassed do this to us? Oh woe is us!”
You’re over here faulting Gen Z for not saving money at a less than 1% interest rate for savings or investing in stocks that lose a third of their value on the regular and really isnt worth investing unless there is a company match on investments so it’s at least not all their money being thrown away.

Do some soul-searching, brother.
