Me, watching young people revolt because it's suddenly dawned on them that they're getting saddled with a mountain of debt and a melting currency and their meagre wages will be confiscated to finance the older generations having 20-40 years of paid vacation and they probably won't be able to afford to live anywhere near where they work and own their own home, get married, and have children, unless they inherit or marry someone who will. image

sometimes even inheritance does not work: Had an old serbian officemate, he did not lost money when his currency colapsed because, as soon as the iron courtain fell, he took all his money in a bag, took a train to Switzerland, and deposited all his savings there. He was not in good health. His son married, and they really expected the money. (Uncharitable) ppl gossiped it was one of the reasons she married... And I noticed he was not thrifty on his old age. sports car, vacations with new wife, nice restaurants. No way he was living on a professor salary. I asked: - Hey, you aren't leaving much money to your son, right? - He does not deserve it. 😆
