Hells Bells! 40 years ago WE were just barely getting by financially! A new baby and a job that paid barely above minimum wages and all we could do is pay the rent, put groceries on the table and go fishing or a drive-in movie on the weekends.

Under thirty is when you find out what the real world is like and what you are made of...............

42% of Americans under 30 say they’re 'barely getting by' financially

They can thank the previous generations for offshoring their career opportunities.

Folks,

self perception is not a good survey.

More than 47 million people in the US face hunger, including 1 in 5 children.

Millions of people in the US don’t have enough food to eat or don’t have access to healthy food. This is a big problem, but together, we can solve it.

I bet it’s because they spend too much. 18 to 29 isn’t the big earnings years.

My wife and I were “barely getting by financially” in the 1970’s - 1980’s. We often ran out of food for weeks.

Then we learned about tithing and things turned around very quickly.
