I was shooting the **** with a guy while getting my oil changed yesterday.

This new generation thats entering the workplace had next to no sense of hard work towards an ultimate goal. There had never been a since of failure or hardships to overcome because people thought that would be detremental to their upbringing. Everyone gets trophies, everyone is a winner!

So now, for a nominal fee, a snap of the fingers and one place can turn you into a pilot in 90 days flat. Not six months, not four years, not 12 years. Put that nominal fee on top of these new kids having next to no sense of personal finance...and one may speculate what economic future we will be headed towards.
