Are you a young white man who just can’t seem to get a stable job that will afford a home, a family, and modest lifestyle? Well have no fear: Panda Express is hiring assistant managers for seventy thousand dollars a year! Or, you could work at Chipotle stuffing burritos and be making one-hundred grand in just a few years! It seems silly, but this is real advice being offered by “conservative” think tank journalists and pundits. If, after all, they managed to make their big break a decade or two ago there’s no reason you can’t put on a suit and tie, walk into a business and secure yourself a good job offer with a solid handshake. I’m being tongue in cheek, but in Biblical terms this is called exasperating your sons. Real wages are the lowest they’ve ever been. Housing is flat out unaffordable. This is all while 94% of new jobs added to the S&P 100 companies are going to people of color, who are a significant minority in the US. Advice that really did work for the prior generation just doesn’t get as far any more. It’s harder than ever to provide, save, and build up an inheritance. And for us to actually give helpful, loving advice we have to be honest about the challenges young men are facing today.
