Some people think that young people can enjoy their time more than older people. They might think that young people can enjoy their life because they have lots of energy as they are young. However, I have seen that old people spend their own time doing whatever they want. Older people have more time and money compared with young people who have to prepare to get a job and have family to feed and breed.
To begin with, young people are so busy to prepare for their future life. After they graduate university or high school, they get pressure that they have to get a job. According to the the rate of 2014 employment rate, in this year, lots of 20s’ who graduate university didn’t get a job. Considering this situation that it is hard to get a job, students have to do special activity such as international activity, volunteer work for resume and getting a lot of certificates is essential. For example, in my friend case, when she was senior, she always went to library to study for getting certificate and she didn’t have had free time to meet me on weekdays as well as on weekend. For 1 year, she have spent time to prepare to get a job and she entered in major company in Korea.
Top of that, young people who got a job and got a married also live in harsh competitive world. They have more responsibility than old people. If they got married and have children, they would have to make money a lot for breeding their children and manage family. Also, sometimes, they might have to give financial help for their parents too. Most of them who have a job, they have to go to the office in everyday and if they have problem or big project from their work, they might give up to take a rest in weekend. For example, my aunt who is working mom is as busy as she can’t make a time even in holiday. Since newyearsday, I haven’t seen her and she always said that she have a lot of things to finish. Inevitably she doesn’t have enough time to play with her child, so she said that she always feel sorry to her baby.
However, older people have more free time than young people. Nowadays, silver industry is getting popularity because life span is expending due to development of medical technology. People who retired usually spend their own time doing whatever they want. They already finished their responsibility which is raising their child and they have enough money to enjoy their life. For example, my grandfather always go to travel or hiking with his friends. And due to his activity life, he is getting younger than before and he is healthy and energetic that I can’t believe he is 80 years old.
To sum up, older people can enjoy their life more than younger people because they have less responsibility, more time to enjoy their life and more money than younger people who have many things to do for their future. |
