: Is the American Dream still achievable? 🇺🇸

My take: It’s not gone, but it’s definitely harder now. High prices, low wages, and expensive housing make the climb tougher than it used to be. People can still make it—but it takes more struggle, more luck, and more support than before.

Every generation has had its struggles. When i got out of the Navy, I was $10k in debt, was starting a new job, there was no rental housing available. We had to borrow from family for a down payment on a starter home. I didn't sleep for almost a months wondering how I could afford paying the mortgage and taxes. When i had to order oil for the heating system, I almost had a heart attack.
