[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tend to agree with much of this. The millennials I know almost all live with their parents because (supposedly) they're saving up money,[b] but they lack for nothing (new iPhones, clothes, cars) and take ski trips to Aspen. [/b]I have a hard time imagining that their bank accounts are flush.

One is actively looking for an apartment -- with his mom, of course -- and has turned down every option for some reason: too small, too dark, the kitchen isn't updated, too loud, too close to public housing, too far from mommie and daddy. He wants to get a roommate, but he refuses to share a bathroom and his mother agrees that sharing a bathroom with "a stranger" is unacceptable for her snowflake.

Can't exactly weep for them.[/quote]

It's not just millennials. I know a lot of people who live like this.  I have numerous friends who have student loans or I'm certain aren't saving any money but manage to go on expensive vacations, have iPhones, take uber everywhere, dine out and order takeout frequently.  They don't seem to bat an eye at living like this.  [/quote]
