Good for you boomer. I was a new grad with almost nothing in the market when Covid happened [/quote]

DP. Not a Boomer. Based on your post, it couldn’t have happened to a nicer person! I love this for you. Your whiny, negative attitude and lack of resiliency tells me you were always going to be poor and a loser.

COVID is hardly the worst or only bad thing that has happened, you just lack a knowledge of history and have a deep sense of entitlement. The Holocaust,WWI, WWII, Vietnam, the crash 1929…[/quote]

Your post is 10x more whiney and entitled than the short and pertinent comment from pp so maybe take a good look in a mirror. [/quote]

Explain how it’s whiny and entitled? Life has always been hard. I don’t expect anything different. You on the other hand…weak.[/quote]Life hasn't always been as competitive as it is now. It's a by product of the easy access to information.

Do you remember when you might know a driving shortcut that no other cars used? Now everyone knows. Do you remember when you might know of a great sale, show up a little late but still find your size? Now everyone goes first day. Do you remember when you could book a great beach house in May, lol good luck with that now.

It's not just those. Back in the day only the people who really valued something were in on the best info about it. Now everyone who is vaguely interested has the same best inside tips. The result is less overall happiness because for everyone. [/quote]

Not in my industry.

This are low value examples. Google search results from scraping the internet are the best source of info to make decisions? Lol

We were recently told we needed new brake pads and I knew our minivan got all four new for $600. So when the guy said $500 for two rear ones on a much smaller vehicle I laughed

Meanwhile my city boy husband google AI searched it and it said it can cost $400-1000 so sounds good!  No mention of car size, metro area, whatever.

Yeah! Fully informed! Got a range with five standard deviations from reality, here’s my money.  [/quote]What did end up paying for the rear brake service you needed?

On car service, checking the internet has been great for me because I know nothing to begin with. So when they show me a list of things that need to be fixed, I can actually check what it means.[/quote]

DP. Looking up How To’s is totally different than getting an estimate, looking on line and seeing such a wide range it’s useless. [/quote]
