[quote=Anonymous]As a millennial we have it easy compared to my boomer parents who are in their early 70’s. My dad was drafted and fought in Vietnam and lost a lower leg. He went to college on the GI Bill and then lost a job during a recession. They couldn’t afford a home because interest rates were in the teens so they lived in low cost housing. Soon after I was born things really turned around for them with good jobs, they bought a nice home and really started saving. My brother and I both went to great universities and graduated debt free thanks to my parents. I’m now 40 and we live in a nicer home than my parents ever had. What they went through to help me get to where I am is amazing. My parents are very generous and loving and when read about millennials raging on boomers it makes me scream. None of my friends rag on their boomer parents so this is strange to me. [/quote]
