I was born in 1991 and I've noticed a trend amongst people my age reaching their 30s which I call "the middle generation conundrum"

Basically, most of us grew on our parents belief that hard work meant a good life.

But as time passed we started to notice a couple of things:

• Our parent's way became more and more out of reach, even with the same involvement in our work. No more traditional way of life on a single salary, even starting out in the middle class
• We tend to feel closer to the next generation's way of life which is "work to live" and not "live to work"
• We are also feeding on the general nihilism towards our planet's future which is making some of us less likely to aim for the traditional "family lifestyle"

The result is that whereas me and my friends would have tended to move right on the political spectrum, the majority of us are actually moving far left as we age.

Last (French) presidential elections, I actually couldn't believe how many people around me voted left. It would have been unthinkable a couple of years before
