Ill start, I never used a check. The only way I can get a house is waiting for my parents to die.

    The optimistic nature of the 90’s were the best times that ever were. Economically or otherwise. Then this asshole crashed some planes. Then this other asshole officially ended the 90’s by declaring War On Assholes™ in 2001.

    My first proper career (as opposed to just having a job) started in 2008, which made me nervous. While I somehow ended up on the better side of everything, the developments of macroeconomics kept me perpetually nervous about my personal finances.

      Your first paragraph reminded me of a song verse,

      [Verse 2]
      Fuck yeah, I’ve always been anxious
      'Cause I’ve always been in debt
      And when I was eighteen two planes flew into a fucking building
      And we’ve been at war ever since
      We destroyed the environment
      Fuck the government, it’s an embarrassment
      We’re all going die in debt
