The world ha s changed , older generations, not all but most, do no comprehend how the world is rn; therefore less stressed.
The problem is they open their mouth and talk about how to do things in a world that doesn't exist anymore, hence pity at best.

Haha sure. No one thats 40 50 60 or 70 has lived a life with stress so they can't possibly know what that is. People bitch today about getting 6% mortgage rates and houaing prices when it was EIGHTEEN PERCENT in the early 80's. That's just one data point obviously. Plenty more out there though.

Yet you don't bing salaries and qol in the eqasion, I have this feeling I don't want to talk with you, especially the "haha" at the beginnging

The haha is because it is laughable to think people who have lived life have no idea of stress and anxiety. The statistical fact of the world is that far far fewer people by percentage live in poverty than even 40 years ago. The literacy rates, education rates, and health rates have all improved (although more fat people currently is lowering that).
So, things are objectively better as a whole even if the individual doesnt think so.

For all youve posted in here, you come off like a seriously salti boii. Your input could be summed up as 'I HAD IT HARDER', with little evidence to suggest that you actually did, and completely disregarding all evidence given to you that later generations got shafted
Tl;dr troll harder scrub

Haha salti boi that's better than the usual insults i get. And I'm not saying i had it harder than anyone else. I paid for my own education (loans). Worked through highschool, college, grad school. Did 50 credit hours of community college to mske it cheaper. Harder than anyone? No. But if i need more money, i work more, instead of posting reddit messages about how bad life is. Houses were cheaper when i was a kid or my parents. So what? They also made less. My dads dad died when he was 5 and his mom got run over when he was 19. My moms dad died when she was 18. Plenty of woe is me stories to be had (and far worse than my family's predilection for early death) but so what. Life isnt fair, my kids have it 20x easier than i ever did (I'm successful and they will benefit from that) but they're going to be as happy or unhappy as they decide to be, and currently dont really want to be happy.
You thinking I'm a troll at least makes me chuckle. People out there get bent outta shape if anyone isnt suffering as much as everyonr else seems to think they are.
Whats your reason that life sucks?
