Introduction
They feel as if in a situation without any prospects. They have given up, cannot imagine that anything can be done to change their situation. They can be born in the lowest social classes, knowing they will never get higher up in society. They see all the wealth and decadence of the rich but can never reach that as they lack the education and money to be able to change. They get into a hopeless situation, become lazy and bored, a feeling of emptiness and nothingness. Life feels senseless and useless. They get exhausted from doing nothing.
Or they get bored from coming from a very rich family, having seen it all and living without a purpose, having nothing to do because they have everything already.
