This is inspired by the 13yr old that posted here and just realised the fact that he would have to work Monday to Friday till retirement, if that ever comes.
I completely understand your perspective and feeling. I had the same when I first entered the workforce.
However, to put it a bit into perspective: regardless of where you live (US or EU) you are born in the best time period possible for humanity. Just 200 years ago you would have had to work from 6 years old to death and 500 years ago life would have been completely, unimaginably different.Yes, you have to work and that will cost you a lot of your most valuable asset: time.On the other hand, even for a lower class income, compared to other humans in the past you will live your days in relative luxury with enough food, a roof over your head and a lot of the modern conveniences we invented. Hell, compare yourself with someone currently living in rural Africa.
But what can you do to improve? The tip I wish I would have had at your age is: invest invest invest! As soon as you start earning money put aside at least 20% and do that for literally every income you will ever get. As soon as you are 18 start putting all that money into a low cost index fund (like S&P500 in the US) and keep doing that. The 20% will be manageable because you don't know better en with compounding interest from a very young age you can retire (depending on where you live an what you make) years to decades earlier and have the feeling of financial independence and freedom. Likely at ~40 to 50.
On a personal level it might help to look into a philosophy of life like Stoicism that can really help you to accept your lot in life, compare less to others and to strive to be a good human.
Life is tough but you can get a lot out of it. Remember: you only got the one life so make something out of it!
