Hedonistic and entrepreneurial orientations are observed among modern youth. A significant decrease has been noticed in the level of educational aspirations and valuation of being employed in the private sector. This generation is optimistic and focused on satisfying own needs. The whole generation has access to the Internet and spends their free time in active way. Existential angst suppressed the fear of unemployment and rejection. Post-transformational society is individualized and optimistically looks to the future.
