...and the only people to blame for this are their retarded baby boomer grandparents and parents for letting the government get out of control.

About a third of 18- to 34-year-olds in the U.S. live at home, the Census Bureau reported on Wednesday. That includes college dormitories. Among 25- to 34-year-olds living at home, one in four is neither enrolled in school nor working. That's 2.2 million people, a small percentage of the nation's more than 70 million millennials but a striking figure nonetheless.

We got 2.2MM certified rotters?

why work when a video game produces identical reward system delivery as a job. Not one of these people. Just playing devils advocate

[LFAesthetics]

clearly I am doing it wrong working and living at home.. i need to join this crew and live off my parents.

[axiom15]

Can confirm, didn't have a job for 2 years. Why? Because nobody ever responded (STEM crew).

What are you if you work/train/educate by day and NEET by night?

[NotANun21]

Perhaps because living at home past the age of 18 makes you depressed af if your parents are crappy, and depressed people aren't motivated to do things when so much effort and work is rewarded with so little in terms of spending power... You can't buy a place, you can barely afford to rent one if you're in debt or in a low position at a company

The older generation can't ruin and falsly inflate the housing market until bursting point so that your crappy home can keep gaining value without the side affect of having to support your dumb ass kid because now they can't move out into the housing market that you fcked up. Take the hit, build some houses, lower the market value of a few places rather than just letting it burst, and create some young people who have a reason to become skilled in something and start living their lives.

two of my friends are like that. Legit do nothing except work out and game. I'd be mirin but they never have money to go out and eat and always mooch off our other friend.

Meanwhile I work 2 jobs and am looking at picking up a 3rd so I can finally put a deposit on a rental property.

Figured the percentage would be closer to 40%, or about the same percentage as the number of lazy fukers on welfare. They are just on parental welfare.

I can feel it. The World and this modern work lifestyle is going to change dramatically in a few generations.

[wincel]

I tried to find a job. Gave up after a year and freelanced. Such is life.

[ButcherSir]

lol im on dat crew for the last 3 weeks in let me tell you.. it sucks. boring as fuk

[soaponarope1]

Rotters everywhere...

But why does the number includes college dormitories? That's not 'living at home'.

Society will be unrecognizable once the robots make human labor obsolete.

Hope we make it

[pellekuling]

I can understand that. Working for someone else for all your life, having boring workmates, ungrateful boss etc. Or chillin and playing games all day. It works now. But what are they gonna do when their parents are too old to support them anymore ?

Cos the parents are paying for those dorm rooms 9 times outta 10

[Howiester]

Would rather be an illegal immigrant, or even worse, a tradie, than be a NEET

[MiniManletBrah]

Don't understand how people let this happen to themselves

Growing up i had nothing, i had no parents to give me money and i was the joke of the school for being the poor kid, from age 13 all i tried to do was find a job but never got any response obviously, but as soon as i tried 16 i got into work and have never been out of work since.

Got my own place age 23 and still work so me and my kids can have nice things.

How can you respect yourself if you are in your mid 20s and still don't earn your own living and get mummy and daddy to sort you out?

[soaponarope1]

Makes sense. I paid for my own skool and stayed off campus, so didn't even think of this.

then we can just rot in VR and collect universal basic income. Might get bored and depressed after a while tho

[Enguin]

Okay so what.
This says that 75% of those people who are living at home are making money or trying to improve themselves.

Frankly that's a shame. I wish it was only 50%. The less people grinding the easier it is to climb to the top.
Lets hope that 25% reaches 80% some day, and not because of economic failure. I gotta make the top 20% somehow.

[Gunite]

25% of millenials living at home, getting paid by the DNC to act like butthurt kent antifas.

[MiniManletBrah]

If drinking scotch was a paying job, my dad would be millionaire.....


SRS though, everyone called me Kenny at school

It wouldn't include ppl working minimum wage jobs at least

[_chef_]
