Who needs facts and actual statistics when you can have anecdotes from Boomers who had to walk up hill both ways in the snow![/quote]

Boomers had Vietnam, the draft, double digit interest rates, a sluggish job market in the 1970s, stagflation, massive corporate layoffs in the late 80s and early 90s, late 80s housing crash plus the 2008 housing crash. Many Boomers grew up /live in decaying towns and smaller cities that never really recovered from industrial decline and offshoring.

Not a Boomer but some of you with a twist in your panties about Boomers need to get over it. [/quote]

My boomer parents' house did not increase in value in 15 years in NJ, and they sold it at a loss in 2001. Values didn't recover in the neighborhood from mid to late 80s peaks until the late 2010s.[/quote]
