[quote=Anonymous]We're all focused on the paying for stuff aspect here, but--If he's actually serious about things collapsing in the next decade, however he defines that: I'd be concerned.

Is this just something he tossed off one day when he was pi$$ed about other stuff, or  is it a theme he keeps repeating?

That has a strong whiff of whatever it is that turns regular guys toward feeling like victims, and searching for whatever "savior" is going to make them feel better about their victimhood. Could be scapegoating others, or refusing truly to commit to a partner, or engaging in destructive or reckless behaviors. I'm serious here. Consider whether he's blowing off steam or genuinely heading toward a "nothing matters" mindset which carries a lot of potential toxicity if he's in a relationship and a parent.

The fact that you even bring up this as an example of his overall negativity is really telling. He must mention this idea a lot. If that's the case, it doesn't bode well. There are so many ways now to feed this very negative mindset just by clicking online.[/quote]
