That use to be the norm but several things are involved: 1) Having your own house/appartment are a prestige item that most people can afford so they get it even if it makes no sense. 2) Deadbeats often rely on their parents and people avoid that stereotype like the plague. 3) Many Americans end up living far from their place of birth so relying on living in your parents house can limit job opportunities

@CyrilCommando Moving up significantly is near impossible no matter what station you're born into. The son of a farmer might own a bigger farm, the son of a businessman might own a bigger factory, but verticle mobility has always been a myth

Whose fault is that?

What's wrong with that? The reason we have many nice things is because the makers have generations worth of knowledge and equipment. I.E. Most farmers where I'm from have tractors built in the cold war, have houses built in the guilded era, and have land purchased in the 1800s.

It has never not been a thing. Heck, until a century ago it was common for three generations of family to live in one giant farmhouse/townhouse.

Is that your way of saying you've given up on having sex?

@stardestroyer19 well my brother was told to move out because he hated living there but didn't care to move away. Everyone else just got jobs or colleges that made them leave and they didn't come back.

@xeikai Upward mobility doesn't mean what you think it means

@stardestroyer19 what I mean is there is some reason to be paranoid about deadbeats living with parents

Except they expect you to take care of them in their old age

The premise of the video is false. The Bank of Mom and Dad HAS ALWAYS BEEN the largest lending source and IT IS NORMAL. What you think people mean by "generational wealth?"

@ivana5618 lose the bull. No actual change

Lose the bullshit. Until pensions became the norm in the 19th century, children were the only retirement plan.

@RealHomeRecording except some people want to own big houses even if it makes no sense
