You know how much college costs now? Try doing it these days on a part time job. It is almost impossible to a) pay for home b) pay for college c) work part time. Used to be anyone could do that - now it's rare.
When I was working my way through college:
1. I did not own a cell phone
2. I did not own a car
3. I did not own a home - I rented a single room in a rooming house that I paid for by being the "maid" and cleaning up the common areas
4. I was working full time as a bartender, not part time
It seems to me that most young people today can't live without their smart phones or a car. You gotta make some sacrifices in the present to secure your future. It seem to me that today, most young people are not willing to do that.
