Psychologists in the USA have found that there are a lot more young people that want to have materialistic wealth without having to work for it. In the article on The Telegraph the results of three different generations that went through the same survey indicate that a higher amount of money spent on advertising increases the desire for young people to get what they want without having to put in any work towards it.

The concern is that this generates narcissism and entitlement; the youth of today have a ‘fantasy gap’ between their desire for wealth and their willingness to work for it. Could this be because there are so many people that are given everything they want without having to do anything in return?
