Always travelled a lot as a solo developer and noticed how few young Americans I saw travelling. The richest country on earth and yet I saw more germans, dutch and even Russian people. Then of course I learned that lots of Americans hardly have any vacation days. Sad thing.

We might be the richest country in terms of the top end but most people I know are broke with no career prospects into their late 20s

Air travel costs thousands and the lack of social safety nets means that only the most reckless, most Bohemian, or ones with loving parents feel like they have a safe home to come back to
