I won’t do it. I won’t pirate. I believe in compensating people for their effort.
little older than you, similar experience. I recall thinking when I got my first real job in 1982 - just give me 3 good years of economic growth, just 3 years.
More like 30 - we were so blessed and lucky
I just want ‘em all to get off my lawn.
What a bad decision on their part. I always salt my pasta water, it tastes bland if you don’t.
I see a lot of businesses making some pretty bad decisions lately. Big businesses that should know better. They should be offering products people want/need at affordable prices. Compete for our business and don’t think you are entitled to our money.
Thank Goodness.
Invest in bicycles, kleenex tissues, organic salad, grow op equipment and solar panels. We will have the sort of economy that high school teachers might design on an acid trip.
Millennials can be summed up as kids who had no parents, because they were daycare raised. They are economically and policy ignorant because things were always given to them and they never experienced loss due to bad decisions. They have no money, because they only have the skills to work retail and they are paying for $150,000 student loans.Because they are broke, they live with a sense of deprivation, which is why they are open to socialism,
Their parents, the baby boomers, are going to completely devastate their children economically because the baby boomers are afraid of Healthcare costs as they get older.
I don’t eat out much, and when I do, it’s usually at Denny’s.
I’m killing businesses, too, and I’m Gen X. WHERE’S MY CREDIT???
Isn't that where all the money goes?
Millennials are the worst educated generation since the Dark Ages, and the college "educated" are even worse.
Millenials have been deliberately indoctrinated with a liberal psychosis that will forever prevent them from becoming productive humans in a human civilization.
Of course, there is always the small percentage who can effectively resist the indoctrination, maybe 3%, or 5%. Lots of those were home-schooled and/or military.
Millennials don't look at a iPhone as something that cost $800. They look at it as a monthly charge for the whole package and they purchase as nice a handset as their budget allows. By the time it is paid off, it's outdated and broken so they get a new one.
And you can bet a nice smart phone gives them far more value that napkins, golf, diamonds or Appleby's.
Also, for many Millennials, their smart phone is their only computing device. I'm learning they do everything from their phone. They don't have laptops and desktops at home. They don't do email. And don't bother leaving a voicemail on their phone, if they've even set up a mailbox to do so. They find it very annoying. They already know they missed your call. Their phone tells them as much.
Blame their parents.

Plenty of snowflakes were homeschooled. Plenty of snowflakes in the military as well. I work with them every day.
“See, that’s the part I can’t figure out. They whine that the Boomers have made them such awful people, but then it turns out they are people who have continued to support their offspring up to the age of 30 and beyond.”
As Ayn Rand said, parasites NEVER appreciate the charity they receive and eventually come to RESENT the provider for never giving freely enough and occasionally expecting a Thank You.

They probably don't even know anyone who would actually pay for porn. Well, maybe their clueless geezer dad.
google "free porn"
Philip Rearden, case in point.
They aren’t investing in homes, Wall Street or porsches...
Duh, they’re just dumb broke kids... what you expect?
Yes, 3% to 5%.
I’m old and we don’t buy napkins either. I thought that was what pick-a-size paper towels were for! Who knew!? Haha.
Me, too. I was last in an Applebees in 2003. I don't play golf. I spend much more money in local restaurants than in chains. I try to save money by shopping carefully online. I must be killing industries galore.
This is not a terrible article, but I could do without the misleading clickbait headline.
