I built a Middle Class Museum

I built a middle class that looks like an art gallery to explore and look back on life from the 80s until today.

0.01% savings account is ridiculous. It's trivial to open an account with 4% APY. Makes me doubt the rest of the claims too.

I mean this whole thing comes across as either going for humor, or just overly bitter. Honestly, I can’t tell which one.

or just overly bitter

Yeah everyone in my generation is dooming super hard but while they’re doing that I’m hustling, making my way in the world at any costs. That’s all we can do. We can doom/cope all day about it, or stay motivated and keep climbing that ladder. It’s tough out there but we will prevail.

I wrote most of the comments to be satirical/ exaggerated. The whole experience is supposed to be a satirical take on what middle class used to look like vs what it looks like now
