Best quote of the video:

"our generation before us said that about us"

Just remember, you know you're old when you continually pregnant dog about the shortcomings of the younger generations.

And remember who is to blame for the younger generations short comings - probably the older one who is b!tching.  And that doesn't mean they were bad to them, sometimes the opposite - they have done too much to help...  Hard to blame 10 year old kids for being lazy - they are either learning it from the parents being lazy, or their parents are helicopter parents that do everything for them.

Cool video.  I don't think I could do it.  Simple questions about $ - how does he pay rent on his building?  How does he buy parts to get the old bikes running?

I'm a plumber in my last year of my apprentaship I really enjoy it but have till may until I am fully qualified, being on below £3.50 an hour for the last 4 years I'm not surprised why there are not as many skilled people anymore. I don't think the youth of today have the patience to put up with it. I watched that vid a while ago it is true what he says. Everyone I know seems to follow the trend of university and coming out with a load of debt, no job and a degree a million other people have. And a load of liver damage.

Sorry about the rant

my kid is 12 and not like me , and it is not any fault of me for lack of trying . It is society that pulls them that way not alway what they see at home .
As for the $$ part , i think when he says he has no money it doesnt me he's homeless and living in a box , im sure he can pay his rent , buy food and parts for his bikes , i think he is saying he is not a rich man
