WE ARE THE 1 PERCENT

.
We are the 1 percenters. We worked hard to get here. Now people want to disrupt our work and take our money because they do not have what we have. We are the students who studied hard for our exams and made useful things during our free time. We are the ones who saved money instead of buying luxuries. We are the ones who invest in companies so that they have money to hire people like you. We do not blame the government, investors, and others for our problems. If we do not have a job, then we go out and learn useful skills, and find a job that needs someone with those skills. Or we create our own job and work for ourselves. We don't waste time whining about our problems. We go out and solve them.

Maybe there will be jobs on Mars -____-

I am younger than you, and even I have found work and managed. Straight out of college, I was in the same situation as you. I lived in a 1 br apartment with 2 other roommates, and poor as hell. But instead of sitting around and complaining about the job market, I read books and learned new skills. I am constantly learning new and useful skills even today. I use these skills to earn money. After a year of hard work, I became a .1 percenter. THAT’s the American Dream. Hard work pays off. The American Dream is still alive, but you have to work for it. It’s not handed to you by the government or anyone else (except maybe the lottery). What have you been doing with your life? Stop making creditors seem like bad guys. They are doing their job. Which is basically collecting money that you borrowed. If you don’t pay them, then you are basically a thief! P.S. Stop working for the military. It’s because of people like you that we are so much in debt. Our country cannot afford to be in war.
