Born Boomer, think as a Boomer.

Am I the only Millenial here?

Based on the fact you’re the only one with a Troll badge, I’d say yes, probably so.

JF89 · April 21, 2019, 1:57pm

The best trolls are senior citizens, just look at Trump.

We are just better at it than you.

Yes you are! The rest of us here are adults! okay the rest of us are older, not going to swear that we’re any more mature and responsible:rofl:

My daughter is a millenial. I know the older generations like to pick on them, but I personally think they got a raw deal. They’re likely to inherit an astronomically huge national debt (as if it isn’t large enough already) and a bankrupt social security and medicare system after its all used up by the large, aging baby boomer generation (and later my GenX generation, assuming there’s any left).

And despite the low unemployment rate, many of them can’t find decent enough jobs. My daughter and younger sister-in-law both have recent college degrees, but can only find menial retail and clerical work that pays a bit above minimum wage. My sister-in-law’s boyfriend is a civil engineer and Air Force Academy graduate and is also having trouble finding work. Similar experience happened to my fellow Gen Xers in the 80’s and early 90’s, but back then rent, car payments, insurance, etc., weren’t the same sky high prices they are today. Plus, globalization was still not as impactful as it is today.

I was finally able to steer my son and daughter away from college. (Not before my daughter racked up $30k 1st year of PSU though😭) my son went to welding school & has been with the Iron Workers over a year now, making decent wages & benifits. My daughter deserted her ambition to be an editor & just finished up nursing school &will be an RN. Her graduation/pining ceremony is in 2 weeks. So I believe she’ll be alright. Many of their friends went conventional college route, in debt to$250k + & can’t find shit either in their field or paying anything suitable. It’s rough out there!!

That’s great. Not only will they have less debt and better jobs, they will have real skills.

LonewolfMcQuade · April 22, 2019, 1:55am

They are both making(or in a few weeks, will be earning) more $ than me! Hopefully they put me in a nice nursing home some day😂

Equin · April 22, 2019, 2:16am

I tried to steer my daughter into health care, just like my parents tried to do with me over 30 years ago. Like me, she didn’t listen. But good on you for convincing your kids. I don’t see their jobs easily outsourced by globalization or automated or replaced by AI technology any time soon.

LonewolfMcQuade · April 22, 2019, 2:22am

Hope not! wish I’d had listened to ‘some’ of my parents advise. But ya know how that goes, we “knew it all” at that age. Some things we were told made sense and we followed the advise, other things had to be learned the hard way unfortunately. Fact/part of life & growing up I guess.

JF89 · April 22, 2019, 4:44am

My point exactly. Trumps trolling is very impressive, ive never seen so many heads explode from one person.
