How many Gen Z'ers does it take to change a light bulb? That sounds like a joke . . . but it's a legitimate question.
In a new survey, one in five people between the ages of 18 to 27 claimed they couldn't change a light bulb . . . and would just hire someone else to do it . . . especially if it was a ceiling light, because going up a ladder would be "too dangerous."
So is this another "sign of the times" . . . now that "screw-able" light bulbs are being phased out for LED lamps that last 10 to 20 years? Or are they just LAZY?
It's probably laziness. The report found that Gen Z'ers are spending more than $1,500 a year, on average, calling in pros to do basic jobs they could probably do themselves. That's five times what Boomers spend on stuff like that.
It isn't just changing light bulbs. The survey also found that a lot of Gen Z'ers don't know how to do basic car maintenance (even CLEANING it) . . . or hanging picture frames . . . and some didn't recognize common tools, like a wrench.
