So this has to do with the character of most young people today,saving money is really one hell of a task for them because they believe somewhere in their heads that their savings should have a limit and most of this young people don't even realise they do such things.
For example, you see a hard working young boy and obviously he's making alittle change from the work he's doing but you'll be suprise to realise that he only invests the money in irrelevant things like mobile phones,tablets,cloths and so on, but saving the money to migrate to a better business is kind of not on his dictionary.
Now am wondering if this kinda attitude is normal or man made , just curious... Drop your opinions

They seem to love and want to get many things @ the same time and this discourages savings

Guys do a better job in this than the ladies. Check well.

It's simple,
It is man-made.
Businesses these days are doing everything possible to sell their services n goods.
Social n mass media are doing everything to pass the msg of "spend-to-show-your-status" to everyone.
Young ppl are the most affected because older ones like us have known from own experiences that there's sooo much more to life than luxury and pleasure.

The younger minds are easily influenced.

Made 70k in 3 weeks, not terrible.
If u can make more than u spend, then u'll do just fine.

They do not see the need for saving or investing. Young people feel that the joy ride is for ever. By the time they get married and start having kids, they think back with regret on the 50K timberland boots and the 150K iphone6 that could have been used to buy 2 plots in a former rural village, now posh housing estate. Of course, the realisation always comes too late. By that time, there is house rent, school fees for 3 kids, food, in-laws and aged parents... you just struggle to swim against the tide.
