Description

Gen Z was told that if we worked hard, got educated, and found a good job, we'd eventually be able to afford a normal life. But rent is rising, groceries cost more, housing feels impossible and even having a decent job doesn't always mean you feel financially secure. So why does adulthood feel so expensive? This is the story of why so many young people feel like they're working just to survive and why the traditional path to a comfortable life no longer feels so achievable.
