Genx here, and many of us are one or two serious mishaps away from homelessness.

I moved back in with my parents. Fuck living alone if it means killing myself with work just to survive. Fuck that.

It’s too bad we can’t ban BlackRock, Vanguard etc…

SolNine ,

I have news for you, as an old millennial, it’s not just G Zers.

kingshrubb ,

At least I’d have my own time back. My life is not my own when I’m working 40+ hours a week.

AceFuzzLord ,

The way I see it, don’t let your superiors know you’re worried about that kind of stuff because if you’re working for a shitty enough company, they will probably hold that over your head.

Oh, you’re not performing well enough. You don’t want to be fired and homeless, do you?

Don’t know if that’s something they can legally do to you, but I wouldn’t put it past a lot of companies to do that to ensure you don’t leave or do anything they don’t want, like ask for a raise or looking for another job on company time.

The whole system is broken, we can’t fix it, we must tear it down.

Awww, capitalist oligarchy not to your liking? Eat cake, pleb.

StaySquared ,

Sadly the aftermath would be devastating.

Can we avoid this by giving Gen X offhanded advice about their personal finances?

Get a roommate, stop buying lattes, learn to cook, etc.

Fear becoming? You mean ARE becoming

some_guy ,

My greatest fear is financial crisis. To an irrational degree where I expect to commit suicide in a panic. I’m in therapy, don’t worry.

Dkarma ,

Hugs, bruh

raynethackery ,

As a single GenX, this is my biggest fear. I have never been homeless but I have been very close a couple of times. My rent is about half my take home pay and I’m sure it is going up again this year.

Dkarma ,

Vasectomy and shack up with a sexy roommate is my advice.

isles ,

The answer was so simple, why didn’t we all see it?!

stoly ,

I’m Gen X with a masters and work as a computing director. I’ve been homeless 4 times, though I didn’t yet have a masters or this job. None of this has been fun.

As an unemployed millennial, I also fear this. I’ve been looking into how to survive as a homeless man and it doesn’t look very enticing.

Gym membership and a storage unit. Alternatively, meet a very nice woman.

Yeah I should get a sugar mama.

Gym membership for exercise and showering were legit part of my plan. And somewhere to store a laptop (locker) was vaguely part of it too.

But I don’t think I have the constitution for sleeping rough. Maybe I’d surprise myself. I feel like I’d get lots of reading and writing done.

The cost-of living crisis is so bleak that some Gen Zers genuinely fear becoming are homeless

FTFY

The amount of people living in their cars at the park near me in Long Angeles is astounding. It’s really sad.

Dkarma ,

I never understood of you have a car why not leave and try somewhere else?

There is no digging yourself out of a hole in Cali…you just can’t.

return2ozma OP ,
@return2ozma@lemmy.world avatar

The weather, the jobs, friends and family in the area, many reasons.

Whole tent cities under the freeway routinely get raided by the police and “cleaned up”. And our political climate is increasingly moving toward the view that the non-homeless would be better off moving homeless folks into a prison camp or grave.

SpicyLizards ,

What… genuinely fear homelessness… such a new concept!
