    Oh and those pensions you might have heard of? That’s just an old wives’ tale, no such thing for you.

    Well, they’re not wrong. If I had known I’d be in the same place after 10 years, I would’ve made myself more comfortable.

    If you decorate it really nicely, the landlord can kick you out, and rent it out for even more money!

    The problem with being a long time renter, is that there is no guarantee that the real estate will always be available to you.

    What if your landlord sells your house/appartment and the new owner wants to move in? What if the rent hikes eventually make it unaffordable for you.

    Unless you own the property, you cannot plan with certainty for the long term.

    Yeah, it’s not just Zoomers. It’s so many more than just Zoomers.

    Well, then precarity is also bad for fertility. No one wants to have sex or have kids when they’re permanently a month away from homelessness. And that means after the alphas, we might see a severe labor shortage for our landlords and industrialist masters.

    Curiously, this was a permanent problem under feudalism.

    I guess it’s just realistic and “make the best out of it” at this point
