I believe most millennials have very unrealistic life expectations. They want everything but no compromises, in previous posts basically said that this generation struggles more than the previous. I believe that's not true, every generation had its challenges. I'm a millennial just saying.

Since graduation I had the same job even same position for 5 years, at one point I made the technical part interview for new applicants and I've seen that most millennials have very unrealistic expectations about:
- Salaries. Sometimes they wanted to earn more than me.
- Life/work balance. At some point in your life, you will have to work extra hours, deal with it.
- Career growth. Just because they have some basic understanding of the job, watched some TED talks and read some empowerment/leadership books they feel entitled to be managers in the short term.

Even at one point one candidate told me, "how is it possible that you are not a manager yet, this job sucks".

I reached the time that said that I have a fat enough resume and started to apply to dream job companies and guess what I nailed it. Because when those companies see your resume they know you are committed and all the sacrifices you had to make to be where you are.

Stable companies do exist, even the ones that are stable in the worst financial times.

So if someone is a job hopper, non-committed, with unrealistic expectations, the chances of not getting a good job are extremely high.

They also believe that you need a lot of money to invest or expect very fast ROI, there are zillion options, even cryptocurrencies, obviously, at the beginning, you are very likely not to see the profit or even like me that lost the investment for not knowing how investments worked.

I believe that "luck" does not exist, it's just grit, and everything I have I earned it.
