Let’s compare mortgage defaults among Boomers compared with X and Y shall we? Spoiled brats all grown-up bitching about not being able to pay. We are bitching about paying and not getting it back as promised. BIG DIFFERENCE.
My generation didn’t have peace love dope. We had an AIDS scare that put a big chill on promiscuity.
We also faced a glass ceiling as old fart baby boomers were afraid of the seeing the next generation move up.
It’s gotten better now in the workplace that I am 40 but at 28 there was resentment.
I still don’t have a home (renting an apartment for too long) and with inflated property values thanks to a national trend of flipping land tearing down and building crappy $250,000 townhomes (that yuppies are now defaulting on) there is little to “buy” in the market unless I want to live a meth cooking low rent neighborhood.
Yep. I got left with a lot of gravy.
