Boomers are basically living in a completely different country from you
Free healthcare paid for by you, fat retirement account juiced up by private equity that is parasiting off of your labor, fat net worth due to insane housing costs paid by you, free money every month from social security paid for by you.
My father constantly lectures me on how I should move away from NYC to somewhere cheaper "like Alabama" whenever I complain about housing costs. I reply "I need to be here because the jobs are here, and I have friends and family here", he says why not work remote and move to Alabama? Ok dad let me just find a good paying remote job and move to Alabama so I can keep my head above water. Let me just nuke my social life and any future networking opportunities or potential so that I can afford housing.
An entire generation of people who have their fingers in their ears even when their own children are suffering. Mind you, my father can easily help if he wants to, he owns multiple apartments but wants me to "earn it" like he "earned it".
