Lawn services
Car wash subscriptions
Uber eats
Restaurants outside of special occasions

Brand new vehicles
Dating apps
College loans
Doggy day care
House cleaning
HOAs
Home camera systems


I’m sure I’m missing a lot of things. The younger generation needs to get back to having pride in their possessions and stop throwing away money and blaming the government.

Well, kids actually let their rooms. They went outside. Now, kids live in their rooms, instead of just sleeping there.

I don't pay for most of these and I'm a millennial. But I get your point - life is turning into selective TV network subscriptions. You have more options, but cumulatively there is a lot of added costs.

They paid for cable or satellite.

Brand new vehicles
What?

And as for the used car market, the entire market was wiped out by the famous boomer Barack Obama, who a majority of boomers voted for.

Thanks.

College loans
True.

Then the boomers spread the lie that everyone needs to go to college.

House cleaning
100% they did. :lol:
quote:

HOAs
Almost all set up, run, and dominated by nosy boomers.

What a terrible list. :lol:

Did some boomer take a promotion from you are something. Did your mommy not give you enough attention because she was too busy smoking? You should relax my friend.

Summer time routine.

Breakfast
Told to go outside and play
Lunch
Told to go outside and play
Be home before dinner
Family time
Bed

Sometimes if at a friends, be home before that dusk to dawn light comes on. Learned to pedal like a mofo that way.
