[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No I don’t. I read that “what’s it like to have a happy marriage” thread and I don’t know how life would have been different had I married somebody else, but I know for sure that I have a happy marriage with my husband and that’s all that matters.

But you should recognize that your situation is common as a result of both Boomer political policies and the fact that Boomers don’t have enough money to retire. Yes, some Gen. Xers and millennials have made it but your situation is the norm. This is the economy, not you or your husband. [/quote]

Those generalizations are so weird.  All the boomers I know are retired.  The ones that aren't it's because either they love their job or they don't want to be at home with their retired spouse all the time.  I'm a retired boomer and I never made more than 60K in my life and for the first ten years of married life I was a SAHM.  My exH is retired and he was a house painter.  We are both living happy retirement lives.  I'm pretty sure you are not the expert on boomers, politics, the economy, retirement or anything else.[/quote]
