Boomer here. I bought my first house after ten years of saving like crazy. And the interest was 14.5%.
I don’t know where kids got the idea that they were due a house and new car at college graduation, but that’s NOT how it ever was.
heretical lakeloon@loonlake55
Too many young people are resenting Boomers, claiming that Boomers had it " easy " financially in their youth. Here are a few fun facts about growing up Boomer. 1. Almost everyone grew up with one bathroom. Mom, Dad and all 3-6 siblings. 2. If you did get to take a vacation, you drove. With no air conditioning. No cup holders. No iPads. Just black vinyl seats and bologna sandwiches. 3. There were no club sports. No Parks and Rec activities. Summer camp was for rich kids. Get yourself a bike, a stick and a few friends. If you were bored, you laid in the grass and looked at clouds. 4. You ate what was served. Even if it was chicken livers. No DoorDash, no backup Totino's rolls. 5. No AP classes, no PSEO, no "fun" elective. They assigned you to a class. You went. You did what they asked. Or else. 6. Unless you had rich parents, you had a nice VFW wedding. Maybe rent a room at a modest hotel. 7. Most Boomers got their first pedi and mani in their 50s (when their feet got farther away). We didn't even know people got massages in real life, only in Hollywood. 8. You packed your own lunch for decades. 9. No one knew what red light therapy was, a facial, a spa day, or a cold plunge. Your gym was the YMCA. Usually in a rather old building. 10. We grew up with 18 percent inflation, 14 percent mortgage rates, 3 million continuing unemployment claims, and 200 other applicants competing for the same job. Now, this is not to say Millenials and Gen Z have it easy or don't face problems. It's just to say, nobody has it easy or doesn't face problems. My only hope, as my mom would say, is I live long enough to see my kids' kids complain about how easy they had it!

@kraska4PF @ilySalt This is how they earn their money so unless he had a contract with them that obligated them to show then they didn’t agree shit beyond a ‘sure bro whatever’.
Dumbass.

@jmoserr It’s so annoying. Mfs think that automated blogs = free seo money

Genuinely so glad people believe this absolute nonsense.
Makes me so much more money in multiple ways:
1. My competition is ai slop lords who have no clue how to drive actual enterprise value with SEO — “more content gooder” is literally my competition 😭
2. Companies come to me needing someone to fix the massive mess this strategy always creates, I rightfully charge a lot for it
3. Links become more and more and more important by the second as it’s the only SEO lever that will never be automated
I get stoked when I see more people believing this stuff!

@ianbach Will disagree here. Traditionally early 20s is actually when people did their best work. Newton was 22 while inventing calculus, Einstein 26. Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, Google, and many more were founded by guys in their early to mid 20s. Now... for a complaining company...

Whoever leaked this does not know the rules of Bookface. There is a reason why Garry posted this on Bookface and not on X.

There’s been a lot of allegations against Delve.
But we haven’t been able to share our side of the story until today due to ongoing cybersecurity and forensics investigations.
Maintaining customer trust is central to everything we do.
That said, we grew too fast and fell short of our own standard. To our customers, we deeply apologize for the inconveniences caused.
We take these allegations seriously and have made changes: a new auditor network, free re-audits and pentests for all customers, enhanced transparency in audit communications, and more.
However, we also want to set the record straight on the anonymous attacks.
The evidence we have points to a targeted cyberattack from a malicious actor, not a “whistleblower.”
We believe the attacker purchased Delve under false pretenses, exfiltrated internal company data, and used it to launch a coordinated smear campaign.
The posts rely on a mix of fabricated claims, cherry-picked screenshots, and stolen data taken out of context.
See the link in the comments for more details.
Delve was built to modernize compliance. We are not going anywhere and are committed to building what's next.

@dakotahermes Because these tards try to offer a guarantee they know damn well they can’t deliver on

@GlobeFarrah No we don't, photographing weddings is a pain in the ass, it's one of the hardest events to cover, not to mention there's mountains of pictures to edit afterwards and people are very very demanding with the editing

I stg photographers are the #1 group of people who need to be humbled in the absolute worst way. Too many of them think they are the second coming of Christ

You could literally
– Buy Claude Code
– Start a business and call it a Saas
– Charge $150 per month
– Sign 10 clients
- Sell it for a 10x ARR multiplier ($180k)
Why is nobody doing this

All of the career gurus who jumped into the Ai space from another info offer are somehow involved in "Ai Voice Agents".
It's pitched as the easy money in Ai, and that all SMBs are buying them.
Don't fall for it!
