[quote=Anonymous]I'm 58, so older Gen X. While I think our generation is awesome, we do have our pros and cons. One of our biggest cons is our inability to hold on to relationships. Many in our age group can start relationships, but cannot sustain them long term. "Gray divorce" is at all-time record levels. Gen X has the highest rate of marital dissatisfaction of any generation: 47% of Gen Xers say they are not happily married. So nearly half of Gen Xers divorce, are divorced. After hiring expensive divorce lawyers, they can struggle financially alone. It's better to save as a couple than to save solo and be left whipping in the wind and exposed alone to the elements. That's finance 101. I firmly believe some of our financial problems are self inflicted and not inflicted by the economy. [/quote]
