[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an older millennials ( early 30s) and everyone I know and younger does not meet the accepted negative narrative of millennials. They are:

- well educated and ambitious about their jobs. Whether they’re in engineering, finance or public policy, they are go getters and hustlers. They take their careers seriously and are eager to climb the ladder.
- health obsessed. [b]Peloton every day[/b], work out and eat healthy is a lifestyle.[b]Green juices and self care[/b] is a mantra.
- [b]productive hobbies[/b] like hiking, learning languages, traveling and cooking. 
- pet ownership and home ownership for those who can afford it.
- spotless and clean homes that [b]look like pottery barn catlog[/b]
- serious relationships or in the quest for one.

I don’t relate to these lazy entitled millennial stereotypes at all! [/quote]
The bolded are the most millennial things ever. And, at the same time, they are the things that all of the people who write about millennial burn out say is driving millennial burn out.

OP, surely you realize that the vast majority of people, millennial or not, cannot and never will be able to afford these things. Right? Regardless of generation, that's why so many people are exhausted and unhappy. And that the privileged and "ambitious" people don't seem to understand that they started life on 3rd base.
