They are comparing aspirational lifestyle,  what Boomers may have now, not what they had then. Nothing has changed, Boomers had it actually worse. Secondly,  there is a LARGE age difference in Boomers.  Younger Boomers are the parents of millennials, not the older Boomers whose kids are Gen X. There's so much nuance lost resulting in stupid threads like this from this generation. Bottom line- you have to go through same hoops. Sorry,  no short cut. [/quote]

No, that would be stupid. The studies literally compare them at equivalent ages. Boomers can’t be troubled to actually read the data before arguing that they are special and misunderstood![/quote]
