They just got dominated by the silent gen and boomers then overtaken by millennials. Might be the biggest fumble in history.

Date: March 14th, 2026 1:13 PM Author: dupa Do you think it's a bit disingenuous to argue both that baby boomers are better set up for retirement and then also that they are so poor that gen exers are forced to financially support their aging boomer parents? I think he also vastly overstates the extent to which the average boomer is collecting on a big fat pension.
I think this "sandwich generation" term is a bit of a fiction. Gen Xers (especially older ones) were still lucky enough to get through college without taking on massive student loans. While this complains about supporting his adult children, in all likelihood, he didn't pay for his kid's education who is now starting out life 6 figures in debt and competing against AI for jobs. Let's project how the rest of their adult lives play out and see if this gen x sad sack still feelsl ike a victim. |

Date: March 14th, 2026 1:51 PM Author: cowgod but both are somehow true irl. Gen X either gets to watch boomers boom it all away and leave them with nothing, or their parents are poor af and need help. both situations suck for Gen X. it's different people in each scenario I guess. but in one intact Gen X household you could have the husband's parents rich af and giving nothing in terms of inheritance while the Gen X guy seethes, and the wife's parents are Poor and need help. Gen X Loses in both scenarios.
in another time, you might have rich parents but they put more effort into taking care of your financial wellbeing, *or* maybe you had poor parents but they drank themselves to death and died quickly/cheaply/efficiently. |
