I have two adult kids in Gen Z and I can look around and see that they're going to be fine because they chose the right parents. Everyone who chose the wrong parents is basically fucked and should go back and do-over next time. If I knew that I was never going to buy a home. I was never going to marry and have kids. I was never going to be able to start a successful company (unless I live in North America and am right up against the money spigot). I was never going to get a job making enough for me to save for old age. I was never going to... Then I would eat, drink, and be merry and put 20k sats on the Knicks because fuck it all and fuck them all. Burn that shit down. The only way to win a rigged game like that is to refuse to play. And they know it. The Boomers are going to find out that their assets are worth nothing because nobody wants to buy them because they impoverished the young. You cannot steal from your own offspring forever.

Sure, but I would like to add that people have a innate tendency to overlook the impact that peer groups have on their children; even as they reach adulthood, temptation still rears it's ugly head on occasion. Okay, but that's your response to those particular scenarios. There are plenty out there who won't react in such a way. That's the truth... I agree with all of that.

I wish the Boomers would just admit already that they never actually "fixed" the economy for anyone after '08. image
