MODERATORS
Yup know many boomers that have kids now that they are covering their rent. Some moving from city to city trying to find work after the promise of going to well known colleges getting them a good job. That never happened.
How old are you?
This shit literally happened after 2008. Most millenials didn't get good jobs until after 2015 if at all.
Before 2015 you either were super elite or super smart/lucky if you were young with a good job.
If you were blue collar type, forget it! Boomers were not taking any greenhorns back then, unlike now.
