These folks aren’t just chatting—they’re exploring the hidden corners of life, asking the tough questions, and connecting on levels that most of us only dream about.

I still have a lot more to visit, but it’s been fun connecting with so many people, some new, some old. It’s been a great process, and there are a lot of really good kids out there.

Many of the frugal Gen Z habits people make fun of not only actually work ... meeting new people and connecting with their friends without having to go out to eat or spend money on an outing.
