[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many out of touch posters in this thread.

106k. That's it. [/quote]

That's bullshit because it's counting 18-23yo, who are still undergrads, and even 18-25yo who are still in law or graduate school. I'd be more interested is a study that isolates 27-34yo. If I had to guess, it's probably more like 136k.[/quote]

You don't realize how stupid you sound. The word "millenial" doesn't have an asterisk beside it knocking out college students. The OP didn't ask for "a study that isolates 27-34yo"; the OP asked for the 1% threshold for millenials. Your question is not the OP's question, which makes your bullshit...just that. [/quote]

Why would you include a massive cohort of students in a one-percenter estimate? Use your head.

Millennial one-percenter, excluding undergrads, grad and professional school students, is probably in the 130K-140K range. Big law associates, newly practicing MDs, tech engineers.[/quote]

Because that's included, by definition, in the word "millenial." Trying to redefine words to exclude random people is kind of crazy. Similarly, if this thread were about the 1% senior crowd, it would be nonsensical to try to say only seniors who were retired counted in effort to filter out people who were still working. That isn't how words work. If the OP had asked for 1%ers between a certain age range who were fully employed, then yes, ignoring students would work. Otherwise, it's answering a question the OP didn't ask.[/quote]
