Most of my friends that did A-levels went onto study at top universities but are now living with their parents after struggling to get jobs.

On the other hand, people I used to know that left school after GCSEs to do college, apprenticeships or even working at fucking Tescos now have their own houses, cars and even children.

The UK is designed to keep poor people poor and punish those who try to rise above their birth-assigned social class. More generally, I don't know how old you are but it's pretty normal for people to take a while to settle into the job market. Presumably the apprenticeship types have already moved past that point, and people fresh out of university haven't.

Regarding the actual topic of working-class debt being sustainable. I'm talking out of my ass, if someone has actually informed opinions feel free to correct me.

I don't know about the UK specifically, but I know that in my yuropoor country the amount of people who are unable to make payments on their debts has increased over the last few years. It turns out making everything payable monthly rather than in one lump sum is more profitable because a significant proportion of people are terrible at finances and won't think anything of paying $10/month for two years though they couldn't pay $200 for it up front. The bills add up quickly.

It's usually sustainable as long as you keep your job and no major mishaps happen. But long-term, you don't build savings. It cements you into the rat race forever, because the moment you stop for a moment you're insolvent. A significant proportion of the population have no savings to speak of.

That's false.
Any working class person in britain can easily move up to middle/upper-middle class with some effort (assuming there aren't any other problems i.e. familial issues, mental health, disability etc.) Bricklaying/plumbing are really well-paid professions, but most of them spend their paycheck literally 2 days after getting paid and remain in the working class rather than building wealth.

British commoners are absolutely awful at managing money.

This is why every single hiccup post-1995 is also a financial crisis. When you encourage the entire population of your country to leverage themselves to 15-20x their annual earnings, you are asking for trouble. Bad things will always happen, whether wars, plagues, famines, floods, etc etc etc. Now every one of these disasters becomes a global financial catastrophe.

Sure, trades make sense for a lot of people. It's just that while I think plumber and bricklayer are fine jobs, I'd very much classify that as working class. Especially in the UK where you still have things like royalty and nobility kicking about, class is more than just how much money you make, though of course there's a strong correlation.

If you try to get your kid a good private education, that's a lot of money. If you try to go into university, that's a lot of money. Unless you can rely on parents for support or work during university (and many university courses aren't designed to be compatible with working simultaneously), it's very plausible to end up with something like £50k in debt from getting a BA+Master's. The interest rate on that debt is also pretty draconian (I think RPI+2%-3%). Yes, the debt is forgiven after something like 30 years (or is it 40?), but until then you'll pay at least 10% of your earnings every year into student debt.

Want a good house in a nice neighborhood? You're looking at something to the tune of several hundred thousands. Wages aren't that high to begin with, and you're already bleeding money every year to pay your previous debt. Yeah you can be a plumber living in a semi-detached deanobox pretty easily, but again I don't think you've escaped working class there.

My name is Deano Bateman.
I'm 31 years old.
I live in the exclusive Leafy Gardens housing estate.
I've got a 62 inch plasma in every room.
I believe in taking care of myself with a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine.
In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my keepy uppies.
I can do over a thousand.
In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub.
Then I apply an herb-mint facialbalm.
I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol,
because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older.
Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.
I like to relax with marathon Fifa tournaments and getting absolutely blind drunk.
For me, it's Smirnoff Ice.

Low interest loans, of which 0% APR financing is the extreme point, sounds great on paper (hell, you're beating interest!) but they're absolutely terrible in practice because they distort the market towards excessive consumption. There's a reason retailers offer these loans, because they know you'll buy much more expensive items because they're "only X a month".
The worst part is they also screw over the people that aren't debt addicts, because they allow retailers to raise their prices. Look at Burgerland's university market as a great example of that. A college education went from something you could pay off by taking on a summer job in the 50s-70s to the second largest expense you'll ever have, thanks to low interest loans.

1) True, ish, There's 2 types of people rn with about 35/65 split. the 35% will not meet anyone and stick to the laws and the 65% are happy to meet with others. Legally tho, yes we are not supposed to have met with other people for the last 2 months.

2) Again, kind of correct. It is possible to leave in certain circumstances

I mean £120k, and likely you'll have to be physically based there and they'll work you to the bone... your best bet in the UK is to either get on perm for £80-100k doing spring boot & react (probably the most common stack here), or on contract doing the same thing for about £160k/y which will likely fall inside IR35.

You may also be able to land a £100-120k/y senior position within data science/ml working outside of finance where the stress is much lower, think google or some fun little start-up with good venture backing. Don't take on fintech tier stress for £120k, not worth it, the culture is really fucking awful, and unless you're a quant/doing hft optimisation the £300k + bonus is not going to materialize.

This. I spend time volunteering on a local project dominated by university students. Great fun. But I've realised that they have no fucking clue about the world. I was working alongside a 3rd year maths student the other week. I was shocked to hear that he hadn't completed any internships during his studies, and that he doesn't want to do one this summer because it's his "last chance to have fun." On top of that, he says he's interested in programming. Great. I ask him if he has a Github - nope. Turns out that he doesn't know how to program, he just likes the idea of it.
I don't think I was that clueless at his age. Then again, I guess it depends on all sorts of things, like parental advice. But seriously... I'm increasingly convinced that unis are more like unicorn wish factories than institutions that actually prepare you for the cold reality of waging. What sort of shit advice - if any - are these students getting from their professors?
Reading this thread (and seeing the wojaks today) makes me very glad I cashed out recently. I'm effectively retired now and the enormity of no longer having to wage is still an abstract kind of feel.

I dont fully know about Cambridge uni itself but you are right, they're ahead of the curve in respect to that, I'm speaking more broadly of Russel group, I myself was at Cardiff, but there's so many firms in Cambridge and they mostly outnumber the grads from the uni in terms of available roles plus you've got London close by enticing grads with slightly more money, and growth across the whole sector, but many in my circle are unaware

interesting, thanks for sharing your experience. lucky to have based russki. I went to uni in the US and worked fulltime since 18 so had a very different experience. was in NYC so was hyper competitive from the start, but luckily got taken under the wing of a senior vp and accumulated a shit ton of leveragable experience very early on in the game. turned me into a cocky but effective shit.
related to what you said, a friend of mine has a startup dedicated to creating mentor links between uni students and companies looking to recruit fresh blood. it's especially for those looking to pivot soft skills into big tech. seems an interesting and necessary service but I struggle to see how it can be monetised. much better for these companies to create parallel learning tracks online that allow for firm-specific credentials to be gained in tandem with a degree imo.

Because all millenials went to uni, I'd say the majority did some bullshit course. They didn't realise they'd be earning less than 30k until their middle-age and that's even if they get a role in their desired field.

The only top paying jobs in the UK are london consultant roles, chatered accountants, quant firms which required top 1% intelligence and skills to get into or come from private schools. Either that or become a doctor in the NHS.

Even in top STEM fields it's hard to get good paying roles. I earn 52k in Cambridge and people would literally suck my dick to have that. Most of my coworkers are poos. Majority of UK graduates we interview are borderline retarded.

Bro have you even attended uni? You wouldn't even be suggesting this if you had, because you would have realised that first semester that is 100% a wish factory.

These people hang around in cliques their entire university life and when they graduate they barely see half those so called friends anymore, so they look for a smiliar clique in their job but unless they are in some recruitment or large grad scheme they are fucked.

The problem is these people don't realise that they are now the product, or at least their 5% student loan is when the BoE rate is 0.1%. The degree was not the product the loan was. This goes beyond university, it's the rental market and new build home market.

yeah you're right. london being majority-minority has nothing to do with it being a cosmopolitan hellhole becoming further and further disconnected from the nation's ancestral identity and dragging everyone along with it. you'll definitely be able to escape to some quaint midlands town where it will remain an oasis and not suffer from decline like everywhere else.

Thanks for agreeing, but to the rest of your post - you can ascrible that to any major Western city.

It isn't unique and it doesn't support the idea that the UK is Romanian tier.

you're right. even if romania is a shithole at least the people there have a more coherent collective sense of self. i'd feel luckier raising children there desu. at least i'd have a better idea of what my grandkids will be born into.

Yeah, so saturation is dynamic, in answer to your question, you know every year you get new grads, a bunch of smart individuals who apply for few roles, and regards who apply for everything, HR harpies are basically brute forcing the solution to the problem of recruitment because now, that's all that can be done, because of that saturation and the quality of candidates being so varied, but without any way for firms to identify that until they're working (there are some limiters such as '1st degree/Oxbridge only' for law firms or whatever), and their smugness is honestly due to the fact that they're the bottleneck on firms as they have all the hiring power. my mum is a legal sec and her firm has a faggot in charge of HR so everyone coming in is very diverse but apparently all super retarded, so that's another hurdle for your average SWM. But you know what I mean, basically the bottom line is firms have just as many or more failures when it comes to hiring as failures by candidates to cover all their bases and present themselves in the appropriate way

I have a theory that FAANG companies and respective monopolies are pushing diversity not just because they are run by kikes but because all the smaller firms that can't afford retarded niggers in their workforce will go under or be under constant fire from SJWs soon.
