Why do millennial have more student loan debt than any other generation?

The lost generation:

Today’s children get prizes and awards merely for participating — this sends a DANGEROUS message to kids:

“We’re all winners.”

This mindset is repeated continuously at the end of each project, event, or season.

As a result, kids grow up expecting awards and praise just for showing up — (by the way, this sounds like socialism.)

This mindset leaves kids terribly unprepared for the harsh realities of capitalism.

Capitalism is ruthless. It rewards only winners, not just anyone that shows up to ‘work.’

Today, these kids are being offered an irresistible deal: “Go to college, and don’t worry; you can pay the massive college tuition with credit, and whenever you find a job with your ‘valuable’ degree, you can pay it back later.”

“I MUST participate!”

So, here they go to “participate,” at a mediocre college, to study a mediocre (and outdated) degree, to finally, AGAIN, get a “participation reward,” called a degree...

Now, here comes real life:

There’s no easy way to find a good-paying job — and even worse — most don’t have a clue how to compete in this ruthless new economy.

Stuck with no income and monthly student debt payments, they‘re trapped.

I call these young adults the lost generation.

How do the rich earn money if it’s not exchanging their time for money?

Princess Leia owns an apple farm. Luke is the CEO of the farm. A team of one hundred Rebel Troopers works the farm. Rebel Troopers earn $20 per hour worked. We use this formula to calculate their income: Paycheck = ( hourly pay) x (hours worked) If Troopers work 40 hours per week, that would be 20 X 40, which equals $800. Rebel Troopers are commonly encouraged to save their extra money by depositing it into a bank. Their investment follows this equation: Savings benefits = investment X annual interest The problem with “ the paycheck formula ” or the “ bank-savings formula ” used as mechanisms to wealth is that the variables are limited and out of the Troopers’ control . · Troopers cannot work 3,000 hours in one week. · Troopers cannot force Luke to pay them $1,000 per hour. · ...

Why aren’t more people encouraged to become entrepreneurs?

How is it possible that Steve Jobs, with no college education, transformed our world in such a massive way? What made Steve so creative? How did Steve manage to “Think Different?” Steve was a dropout, a rebel, but most importantly, Steve was FREE! Steve enjoyed complete self-governance, total independence to be himself, and would never conform to or follow the crowd. Steve was not a people pleaser; he believed in his vision. When his team members told him something was impossible, he would NOT accept that answer, and would push his team’s boundaries. Steve was driven by his passion and clear vision, NOT by other people’s opinions. Now, to answer your question, why aren’t more people encouraged to become entrepreneurs? Steve was FREE from indoctrination! Our Industrial Age educational system has one mission to accomplish: STANDARDIZE! The educational system tells us what to think, NOT how to think. Indoctrina...
