"The income from working can't keep up with the interest from living off parents"


Recently, I heard about a phenomenon.
Some well-off families are starting to actively advise their children not to work.
Parents have calculated: they work from nine to six, earning two to three thousand a month;
their children wake up early and stay out late, earning four to five thousand a month, and are exhausted.
So they simply say, "Don't go out, stay at home, I'll give you 10,000 yuan in pocket money each month."
There are also young couples who, after having children, both resign, with four elders supporting six people.
Retirement pensions, re-employment income, small business profits add up to nearly 100,000 yuan a month,
even helping to pay social security contributions.
Many people think this is indulgence.
But essentially, it's a problem with the return on labor.
When young people work desperately and earn less in a month than their parents do in a few days;
when the money earned from 996 work isn't enough for the family's assets' monthly returns,
going to work no longer feels like striving, but more like a high-intensity experience project.
In the past, parents always said, people shouldn't be idle.
Now some parents realize that earning four thousand yuan for their children is far less important than
helping them recover their health at home and raising them well.
The most magical part of the era is right here.
It's not that young people don't want to work hard.
But sometimes, the returns on effort no longer compare to the resources they had at birth.
