[quote=Anonymous]I mean who cares? They’re age 26 and under. Young enough that these days at that age they’re not considered full adults and don’t function as full adults. Still on mommy and daddy’s health insurance, cell phone, Netflix, car insurance - if they even drive. So it’s easy to be all idealistic about how you’ll live life on your terms blah blah bc right now bringing home 50k or 90k or whatever is a kings ransom. Life will humble them as it does everyone when they start to realize they don’t want an apartment with roommates forever; want their own house with outdoor space; want kids - or accidentally knock someone up; realize maybe they don’t want to move to Nebraska and work remotely from there despite the great home prices bc their sweetheart is from DC or NYC and ain’t settling in Omaha or maybe in 10-15 yrs they’ll feel they want to see their aging parents more; realize they want to retire eventually and oops they’re now 35 with barely any investments besides crypto.

I mean it’s odd that the oldest of these people are 26 and these realizations aren’t hitting but that’s par for the course for the prolonged adolescence/longer launch pad into adulthood that we started seeing with my millennial gen too. [/quote]
