Sounds like one of the biggest college campuses by number of students on earth. https://colleges.niche.com/rankings/largest-colleges/

Don't ever stop writing. I'm embarrassed to admit that my vocabulary improves just reading your posts.
My opinion is like Gracie's. I like to think about what my folks would say too. I know what my mom would have told me because she has told me before, "Tom, you're young, you have your whole life in front of you. When one door closes another door opens."

Of course she's right. She's my mom. But beyond that, when I think about how one job led to the next and opportunities cropped up after failures it seems wiser and wiser. That's the the same advice I have given my children.

What do you think? Funny or offensive?

This is what it's like to live in The Villages as a young person | Blogs | Orlando Weekly

Funny. My guess is that he's making money off his YouTube channel so he doesn't need the job.
This generation is a million light years from the Baby Boomers. 30 years from now, they will be living here. Lol
