On the other hand this guy went through a whole lot of expensive education racking up debt to enter a career where he won't be able to pay it off. I don't blame him though; I know the atmosphere and attitude that lead Gen Y to follow their passions in college and careers when the reality seems like a predatory trap for moneylenders. Yet you see why people would call that entitled.
I think that both generations are at fault here. On one hand, the atmosphere that Generation Y grew up in led to the belief that they were invincible and could do anything. On the flip side, though, these people chose to go to college for careers which are obviously not viable to make money, and blame can't lie solely on the generation that raised them.
