The youth are going to get old as well. And if you're young and you're not rich already, I bet you don't like birthdays that much.

Actually I have a summer birthday so, yes, I do not enjoy them very much. I'm basically very disappointed at the economy and society that I've inherited. Forgive me if I don't wear a smile while looking critically at those who came before me.

Sounds like you blame the elderly for your situation. What happened to taking responsibility for your own station?

You know what they say, "Recession is when your neighbour loses his job, depression is when you lose yours".

It's easy enough to say that it's up to oneself to 'take responsibility', until you find yourself in a place where there are no jobs, and it's really not possible to thrive.

I'm doing fine right now, but I'm looking ahead 5 years.
