Note to all you Z and M geners who spend your days and nights trading cryptos and futures contracts

You seriously need to get a life. I understand, agree and greatly sympathize that you Zs was screwed over by my boomer generation. You people were hosed and continue to get hosed. This is not your fault.

I don't make the laws -- so don't blame me. Blame the politicians. Blame the bureaucrats. Blame Wall Street. They are all to blame. Big time.

Ultimately a massive economic upheaval must occur for things to be made right with you. It will be up to you to make this happen because greedy boomers will never give up their wealth willingly.

You were cheated in primary and secondary education if you attended public school. This was not your fault.

Your parents gave you the wrong message by awarding trophies for participation. This was not your fault.
You were led to believe that college loans were the only way. Now you have more student debt than all previous generations combined. I lived at home and graduated from a Big Ten university at the grand total annual cost of $XXX.

To pay off student debt a job is required. So where have all the middle class jobs of your parents and grandparents gone?  Mystery? Most of those jobs were gobbled by Asian manufacturers and staff cut-backs by Private Equity blood suckers. When I graduated from university I was offered four or five jobs that would have been middle class by today's standards.

Home ownership? Many of you cannot even envision this. Your generation is the first in history to have it worse off than your parents. Even young people in the Great Depression of the 1930s had eventual economic gains. 
As a boomer who has achieved trading success I have never -- not once -- paid more than one year of income for a home and I have had some really cool places to own.

And the cost of rent???? Obscene. I don't know how you can even afford today rental market, especially in the big cities.

My recommendation to you for what it is worth.
X. Stop this incessant gambling and trading. Not only is this costing XX% of you important money, it is wasting your time. Time that should be spent in better endeavors.
X. Get a job in the trades. In fact, right out of high school this is what kids should do. Welding. Electrical. Practical stuff needed for culture to exist.
I am against student loan repayment but TOTALLY in favor of providing education in the needed trades for free. No cost.
X. Try to get married before XX or XX and start your family by age XX. Having a family is a way for men to man-up and become responsible. 
X. Save as much as possible. You will probably have a couple really magnificent opportunities during your first XX years that will require capital.
