  • Because this article isn’t written for Gen Z readers. It’s written for Boomers, the largest consumer bracket of random bullshit web articles like this, and they’ll read that line and think “yeah, dumb kids, they should just learn to budget, that’s what I had to do” and they’ll feel slightly superior and slightly satisfied and come back and click on the next article tomorrow, driving ad revenue because they’re too dumb to use ad blockers, and that’s literally the whole point of all of this.






  • If she’s young, help her build good habits. The important stuff has to happen first, before the fun stuff. That’s not just for video games, that’s everything.

    If she also likes sports or playing an instrument or reading, help encourage a healthy balance. I personally game 3ish hours a lot of evenings. I also exercise 2ish hours each day because I like to. I don’t feel like I’m giving up potential time for one by spending time on the other because I enjoy both and I balance them.
