So here I am, struggling to make ends meet every day. This is a very common venture with many of us at this point in time. Ya, I have an addiction to material possessions but this has nothing to do with me. This topic is about the trust fund kids and young adults that can't fend for themselves out in this mad world.
What am I so pissed off about? Well, a lot. More importantly, what just happened today. Something on a small scale made me discover something on a larger spectrum of things. The example I'm about to give will most likely make the majority of you readers will wonder why I'm so agitated with something so small. It's because it's not that small to me when it get's thrown in my face.
See, it all starts back in September of last year. I had been saving up for this new phone. $532.67 was the total. I paid full price cause the plan I have didn't offer an upgrade and I actually needed a new phone. I wasn't going to settle with something either. If I was going to buy a phone with my hard earned money, I might as well buy something I actually want. I digress...
As soon as I got this phone, a friend of mine just HAD to have one. No job, living with her parents, she gets exactly what she wants the very next day for $200 less then what I paid. I wasn't pissed that she paid less than me, I was pissed that she had her parents buy it when she wanted it. No waiting required.
Now this is a very nice phone. One I can hold on to for at least 3 years. There is really no need to upgrade to anything else. I can spend my money on something I actually need to spend my money on. Like... BILLS!
What happened today? Apparently she wanted help setting up her brand new phone! She has a plan that allows her to upgrade but it's August. She got that phone in October of last year. No upgrade available at this time. So it was full price, but did she pay it? I don't think so. She doesn't pay for anything. Her parents did. She doesn't even live with them anymore and they still pay her bills, including but not limited to; auto loan, hair extensions, clothes, rent, food, etc.
Did I mention she's from Park City? This might explain a little more for you
So the morale of this long tangent is that trust fund kids and spoiled "My parents are rich, I hate life! I'm going to slit my wrists and do drugs..." kind of people need to fall down some stairs immediately. No passing go, no $200 collection. Spend a week in my shoes and find out just how hard it is to actually earn your own money and pay your own bills!
Ok, so some of you may actually have jobs. But because your parents are LOADED, you don't pay your own bills. This is way you suck. You are the reason America is will become just how it is depicted in the movie "Idiocracy". I'm sick of you, you need to die. Or cut the umbilical cord. Your choice but grow up and make a living for yourself if you're choosing the latter...
