The British Don’t Know How to Change Light Bulbs and Pay $1,500 a Year to Craftsmen (2 photos)
British media write that young people in the country spend 1.3 thousand pounds a year on calling specialists who change their light bulbs in lighting fixtures. Many zoomers explain this by the fact that they are afraid of getting burned
Sky News drew attention to an interesting trend, citing a study by Halfords.
A quarter of Britons aged 18-27 admitted that they are afraid to change a light bulb themselves because of the need to use a stepladder, and every fifth one is afraid that the light bulb may be too hot. Sometimes young people don’t call the experts, but turn to their parents for help.
11% of more than two thousand representatives of Generation Z surveyed agreed that it is easier to call a specialist to hang a picture frame. Almost half of the respondents do not know how to inflate a car tire.
Overall, zoomers spend the most on the services of technical specialists. In second place are millennials - they spend half as much as zoomers. Older generations spend even less.
