Oldcels, is 2020 as bad as 2008?

[BabcocksHair]

The job market/economy is just absolutely haram this year do to the bullsht lockdowns. With no end in sight. Talks of a second lockdown/increasing restrictions again. Are we gonna make it oldbrahs?

[DrugsToGetBig]

2020 is a million times worse than 2008. if you're able to fend for yourself you might make it out alive

[GordonXXX]

2008-2009 was worse economically IMO. and 2000-2003 was no picnic either.

[GlassMoon]

jfl at having any restrictions at this point

mid 20s young brah living through his first recession. will definitely make it through, but the financial set-back really hit me right in the kisser. in 2019, I literally couldn't have dreamt of a worse case scenario worse than 2020. feelsbadman.jpg

[sword_]

Definitely hurt in 2008 but I think the chit overall in 2020 is worse.

agreed x1000. its completely bullish!t. but im a pragmatic forward looking guy. it happened, it is what it is. im focused on the bounce back.

Hmm... Interdasting

[orangetide]

2008 had much more optimism, people werent as divided and the media wasnt launching fear porn campaigns. If anything, they were downplaying the crooks on wall street, making a mockery of the tea party, and calling occupy wallstreet insane when it started

I remember gas being over $4-5/gal. That really sucked for most people

bunch of my friend's parents got laid off and had to move to find work.




But 2020 will be worse once the stimulus/unemployment ends and mass evictions start.

Marxism in the US is at an all time high.

This.

I graduated in 2009 and jobs were scarce as fuark.

Father Government has really stepped in this time hard.

I mean they created this mess in the first place. 15 days to slow the spread lmao.

lol this, graduated in 2009 too. It took me 2 years to find a "real" job, fuking brutal.

I been off most of this year but just found a new job, a bit different since I have experience and in a niche but Im sure its pretty chit for recent grads too.

[WeBoutDat]

I don’t think wages have gone up for us slaves since 2008.

[2011change]

Class of 2007 here (HS). 2008 was brutal

[OliverHeldens]

The job market was much worse in 2008 than now, just because the housing crash really started in 2005-2006 and 2008 is when it finally infected the entire financial system.

This time around, the economy was very strong but it's not like that many jobs are going to be lost permanently. However, this year sucks significantly more than 2008 did.

[BabcocksHair]

Eventually the bubble will pop. It might be in a year or 10 years from now, but when it does it will make 2008 and 2020 look like the golden years

[OliverHeldens]

We're in this mess because of what happened from 2008- to now. Inflate, inflate, inflate! Eventually the bubble will pop. It might be in a year or 10 years from now, but when it does it will make 2008 and 2020 look like the golden years

We are actually not in that bad of a situation right now. This time around, it will force a lot of baby boomers to finally retire but I bet in another 12-24 months this chit is going to be strong as fuk again. Also, sometime in the year or two there will likely be a major Infrastructure bill passed which will take all of the laid off service workers and put them into the construction industry. Along with decoupling from China, we are headed into another period of significant growth.

[kusok]

2008 I didn’t even notice.

This communist 2020 BS democrats are pushing is far worse.

[orangetide]

really surprised the bubble didnt pop, or at least the student loan bubble.

seriously taking into consideration someone trying to pull a big reset in march 2021

[OliverHeldens]

2008 I didn’t even notice.

This communist 2020 BS democrats are pushing is far worse.

Social media makes it so political BS can reach a lot larger audience. Luckily, most of that stuff will disappear in another 6 weeks.

[IloveManlyPeecs]

yeah guess what *****, one thing I am convivnced of is that RUSSIA is goignt os tart a awar

because, russi just as the US is a srhinrking superpower and I think they are going to todo what they can to regain their sovieritynity

prepare for war comrades, I mean didn you really think you ****ing **** meillenial that your entire life was gonna be like the ****ing 90s and 00s just peace?

no I say prepare for war, we are all gonna get drafted and its gonna be bloodier than WW2

You're joking, right?

2008 was a fukking vacation, a joyful, delightful experience filled with memories of great happiness and the cleanest, best pleasure in comparison to 2020.

I imagine 2020 is what the Great Depression Era was like, except 2020 is about 100 billion million trillion infinity plus one times WORSE.

in 2008

no sjw
schools were not confusing children with gender bullshyt
social media wasn't prevalent
no fukking smart devices anywhere
no digital currency cash is KING baby
women were still normal
men were still normal
entertainment wasn't degenerate brainwashing filth to the degree it is today
cars were still good looking
misc was still booming


2020 and everything leading up to it can zuk a fukking dick

[eod8989]

2020 is insanity compared to 2008

I was in high school in 2008, unemployed living with my folks. so 2008 meant nothing to me. I wanted to ask because 2020 has been such a terrible difficult year to be alive and a wagecel. so I was wondering if I was being a little btch or if it is actually this bad.

[MustardTiger17]

2020 is worse than the great depression

[climberbrah]

2008 was much worse from an economic perspective. 2020 is more destabilizing from a cultural and day to day life routines perspective, but in terms of jobs and cash and hand 2008 was worse.

In 2008 you had a stock market absolutely tank and take years to recover(2020 market drop is already back to normal...in fact it was fastest recovery ever in history).

2008 hiring dried up and didn't rebound for years.

Wall Street was brought to the brink.

There were runs on banks. Many banks failed.

General motors went bankrupt

If not for AiG bailout and tarp Goldman Sachs merryl lynch and citi bank would have failed too. GE was failing.

In 2020 many of these companies are posting record profits and don't need govt cash infusions. Walmart Amazon and tesla are sky high right now.

2008 felt like an entire generation (millenials) were screwed and we would never recover our careers (most havent). This time around in 2020 the only stress is these zoomers to get the beat off during the working day while they turn off their zoom camera during the morning stand up. Not that bad.

No, you're not being a little bitch, this is the worst it has ever been and it's not even close.

The entire nation is in decline, it's just that a lot of people don't realize it yet. Anytime we've got problems on a scale like this, the solution is ALWAYS worse.

2001, surely you remember what happened that year, the solution was and still is WORSE

2008, I was unscathed and I don't know a single person that got hit by the events that year, but even if it was different and there was some difficulty, it would not have been as bad as this year has been. Morality, economy, safety all in decline, there were no domestic terrorists in 2008, with, what is apparently a license to sack and destroy the cities they happen to be in. Bruce Jenner still knew he is a man back then, video games weren't scams to take your money, etc., etc. The nation has never been more divided and the future has never been more uncertain and there are MONSTROUS lies being spread both in mainstream and social media outlets, so on and so on.

The biggest concern for any one should be the solution that we're moving toward.

[climberbrah]

2020 is worse than the great depression

Not true at all the economy is actually in pretty decent shape now that places are opening back up.

Says who. I'm hearing of multiple recent grads who had offers rescinded and internships get curbed.
