[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sick of boomers defending what is clearly an insanely unbalanced wealth situation in this country.  And the more callous and "shrug, oh well, at least i got mine!" comments they leave on threads like these, the more millennials and Gen Z will feel determined to "right the ship" and pass laws and elect people into power who are going to do something about it.  We are SICK of selfish older people who seem to have no concern for the lives of their offspring or young people.  And people are just going to get madder and madder as it becomes clear that most boomers really dont give an F- they inherited the most successful economy in the history of the world and burnt it all down and ruined it.  Young people are absolutely FED UP and i promise you- you're going to start seeing changes, especially as young people realize that it wasn't some kind of fluke that boomers are unhappy and sympathetic about- no, they really dont care, as long as they get to stay parked in their comfortable $1 million home they paid 40k for.  Sit and watch.[/quote]

Again,  literally no one in the Boomer generation paid 40k for a house. Your information,  perceptions, and beliefs are absolutely and entirely fiction. There is no wealth imbalance,  Boomers went through the exact same financial and housing situation that millennials are dealing with. For the F - ing last time, you are blaming the wrong generation.  Social media has elevated this nonsense to some kind of religion, but it's all false. [/quote]

Multiple studies demonstrate the boomer wealth imbalance. At this point to deny it is to lie to yourself. [/quote]

I'm looking around, and I am in the thick of boomerville, all occupations, all income levels. Seriously,  "all the wealth" just isn't happening.  
Where are these studies? 
Make your own money like we did. We went without a lot despite multiple graduate degress and jobs.  Lived much much smaller than anyone imagines.  [/quote]
