It strikes us as absurd: an ageing generation with real savings in the bank, yet often left without a hand around the house because the help is too pricey, too rigid or simply too hard to find. The need never went away, it just stopped being seen. And businesses of every size are crying out for flexible, on-demand skills.
On the other side of that coin are young, capable people ready to work. Statistics Finland counted 276,000 unemployed in October 2025, and it's the young who feel it hardest, even with work going undone on every street.
