This is the only part of your nonsensical post that matters. Go look at 1100sq ft houses on the market right now and tell me how many are going for 19k. It won't take you long.

Why don’t you get out of Denver? Nobody owes it to hou to live there. They need CPAs in Nebraska.
Remember when the boomers were coming up, and the expectation was they could live in the same city, working for the same company, their entire life, and the company would take care of them?
Now the boomers are in charge, and say, well screw you, just move.

Yup.
And yet, they are doubling down.

LOL.
I haven't made min wage since I was 15 years old.
You seem to think this is a story about me. It's not a story about me.
See, most humans have the ability to observe others and comment.
I'm sorry you don't.
I do think this story is about you. I do not think you make minimum wage.
But everything else is accurate. You unwillingness to accept hard work and time is what is most different compared to someone like you in the 70s.
I'm guessing you've already made some wrong turns and are behind the clock. Again, your parents probably failed you in more ways than one and you haven't been able to escape it yet. FWIW, you won't escape it until you adopt an entirely different way of thinking or get very, very lucky.
But, from a distance noticing your leftist opinions and gross misunderstanding of economics, your life resembles exactly what I would have expected.

The OP is a moron but he's not the only one who seems to think everything bad is the fault of boomers, as if they get 3 votes to his 1.
1) What generation is Trump, Biden, McConnell, etc?
2) What generation has the wealth to pay their campaign costs?

...and you wonder why millennials are struggling.

First truthful thing you've said today.

Millennials are set to inherit nearly $70Tn from progenitors over the next two decades.
And why is that?
Because prior generations passed the money down while they were still alive.
Boomers only pass it down when they are dead.

Just 20 years ago, almost nobody had a cell phone.
My family’s monthly long distance bills were more than my current cell phone subscription.

Attributing more value to a "culture war" than the actual behaviors and values that drive success is exactly the line of thinking that puts you behind.

Who voted for them? Everybody gets a vote, and our age pyramid is one of the flatter one that exists. We don’t have a huge bump of 80 year olds that determines the presidency; all generations have pretty much an equal say. Millennials voted for Biden; you should be thrilled with all this.

Yup. Literally every apartment complex is advertised as “luxury”
If one lives today as people lived in the 70s life is really, really easy and cheap.
Right. Now where are those apartments that people lived in during the 70s.
We call those "housing projects".

Actually, I've read there's a pretty strong movement by the elderly just to spend all of their money because they don't want it to end up in the hands of their entitled children.
In other words, even your parents hate what you've become.

The government is the reason for this. Joe Biden is also not a boomer, he’s older.

I love it. I am in no way behind.
I see many others who are, though.

So when that money is spent... you know it cycles down through the economy, right?
For the love of all that is holy... take those trips. Travel more. Buy healthcare.
Money will move much faster, if it's spent now.
Basic economics.

When it comes to finances... Biden and Trump are both elites, two sides of the same coin.

The elderly's children would be boomers or generation xers

Not much. We didn't make long distance calls much.
