Yes, it’s true but many want this data to be ignored.
Here is another fact being ignored.

A few months ago, Chronicle of Education had an article where 47% of new graduates could not hold a job for more than two weeks! Is it what they learned in collage? No. It was a lack of basic social skills: coming to work on time, meeting deadlines, dressing properly, holding conversations, etc.That was sorta me 30 years ago. I turned out OK. Work hard play hard. College was awesome - met my wife there.
I'm with you 100%. Couple this with those videos of delivery drivers eating your food or worse. No way I'll order delivery for anything other than pizza, and even then I prefer to pick up my self unless its for a large party.I never really caught on the all the DoorDash stuff. I mean, I pay for a burger and fries, they make it, it sits on a shelf until someone comes and gets it. Then it travels however long to my house. Then I have to tip the driver, plus the extra cost of delivery. Now my fries are mushy and my burger is mediocre cold.
This guy gets it.People in cities might not want to walk if the weather is bad or move their car from its parking spot for fear they won't find another spot upon returning. And we were usually drunk and/or high in college knew enough to stay off the road. Delivery was great.
How is it different than buying on a credit card then paying last months groceries and dinner next month?
Default rates on BNPL is much lower than supbrime credit cards - probably because its much more tightly managed. If you stop paying they stop extending credit pretty quickly.A high percentage of BNPL users are not paying for their spending spree.
This ^^^...
Since the doordash type companies take credit cards, it already is eat now, pay later.
Hmmm. It's only about $20 more to have stuff shopped and delivered here. It's cheaper than us doing it ourselves.doordash groceries are a scam I've said it for months.
with all the fees and such its about double.
all I can think of is using bad CC or using it to shoplift or something..
some scam going on there.. maybe multiple.

Borrowing money and going online to school is a crime. Borrowing money and going to traditional college is, for most people, the best thing that can happen in their lives. It is astonishing that people still think college is just about going to the classroom.
I will find it. But, it might be paywall.Do you have a link for this article.
Lots of young adults do not have a good attitude when they start a job.
Job market very tough for new college grads.
They need all the help they can get by different sources, job leads, networking, job referrals from family / friends / acquaintances, etc….
