@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvoninterestmaxxing but for what? Money is only a degenerate uncontrollable number. The most degenerate form of product. Number go up make dumb boomer happy as hells fire sale ramps up day by day
Every gen x person is a cry baby. Ohhh boooo hooo my parents worked a lot and I hate them and complain even when I'm 52 about them. Grow up, you people also got America at its peak economic wise, the economy was still growing at like 5% a year till you were 30-50. I'm sick of you entitled crybabies complaining when you had it just as good as boomers but fumbled the ball just like them.
Tim dillon hit the nail on the head when he said, "Boomers are the 1st generation to have so much experience and no wisdom to go with all that experience."
@@bryangillis1839 I remember this when I was a teenager (Gen X) and my parents retirement and money management guy told them to not take early retirement and he could get them another 1.1 to 1.3 in the next 3-4 years. Whole new investment markets were opening up around that time and the mid to late gen Boomers made a killing. They stayed in place for the better part of a decade and it threw off the timing of the whole system, that couldn't adapt.
I was trying to buy a house 5 years ago in Houston in a neighborhood where homes were getting multiple cash offers before an open house. A guy who inherited his home sold it to me and my wife below market value because he wanted to see it occupied by a family and not get flipped. I think about this guy often, sometimes you meet people who actually are the change they want to see. It's inspiring.
My grandma did the same thing a few years ago. It’s one of the most commendable things I’ve seen someone do. She wanted to help a young family she didn’t know.
Start following the market on Zillow in their neighborhood, I make sure to tell my Boomer parents about any price drops or houses that will not sale on the market. We hit the peak of the bubble earlier this year so I'm seeing Houses not selling and huge price cuts.
@@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvoninventory is low because 75 year olds won’t put them on the market and boomers have no issue selling to a hedge fund management. As long as they get ahead, fuck everyone else right? Still pulling the ladder up for an extra 150 grand. Boomers are the most selfish and entitled generation in history, no doubt about that
I’m gonna go ahead and guess that you were born in the 70s or in the 80s. Gen x-ers who were born right after boomers (in 66-69) are just like boomers.
I'm a Boomer liquidating my entire life to help keep my Gen Z child ahead and out of poverty. I hear lots of broad sweeping generalizations about Boomers as if much like race or gender we are some kind of monoculture. This guy Tim has lots of fans who frankly are bamboozled by his mindless drivel. Twenty bucks says this loud mouthed putz couldn't do actual hard labor for two weeks straight. He's an idiot and really not that funny.
@@johngaller278 he’s hilarious. And my parents thought they could just give me money if I kissed their ass too. Turns out that giving your kid money doesn’t make you a good parent at all. My parents made me miss the birth of my second born because they thought one of their business assets was more important than their grandkids. We told them off and then they just stopped helping us financially when we needed it most and still haven’t apologized for the emotional trauma they put us through. It’s all about money for boomers and gen x too. As long as you got your golden parachute fuck the world. My parents don’t want a better life for me they just wanted to dominate their situation. It’s not about love it’s about controlling your kids. I would rather be poor than put up with my parents asking for me to kiss their cheeks in order for them to make things harder and throw money at problems. The older generation is just as shitty as the one before and the one after.
They take debts to their grand children to pay for their medical expenses and pension benefits and complain when those kids opt out of society when best they can afford is 50-60% of income going to rent on a shared apartment. And when the boomers are finally on their deathbed, we will be envious of that too because we know that when it's our turn, we will have to pay like 3 month's salary just to be able to take a nap on the side of the road and be devoured by wild dogs. Well, I guess we should have pulled ourselves by our bootstraps and had a firmer handshake.
Do you really think Boomers start off where they are now? It always amazes me that even college graduates think they are going to make the same amount as a person who has worked in the profession for ten, fifteen, or 20 years. There are things you just don't learn by going to college, or working for a few years. You learn them through experience. It's things that don't seem important to you, or seem beneath you right now. If you aren't totally reliable, and a hard worker, they are just waiting for you to quit, or mess up so they can get someone else. If you're rude, or a trouble maker the same thing. This is 101 to being a valuable employee. In order to get a promotion you have to pay attention and learn quickly, be methodical, and accurate in your work. And some jobs you have to do all that, work quickly, be able to problem solve, and find solutions quickly. If you work with the public/customers/clients you must be pleasant, helpful, and have impeccable customer service skills. You can't get angry if someone yells at you, or insults you. You have to calmly tell them that your are there to help, and ask them what the problem is. Then you ask them if a solution will help them, and tell them you are sorry this happened, and it matters to you. They aren't usually really angry with you in the first place. They may have had a bad day, going through something in their life, or perhaps they do have a legitimate complaint. It's hurts the reputation of a business when they argue or are rude to a customer, even if the customer is wrong. I look at them while they are talking, so they know I'm really listening. You can gain many loyal customers who witness your demeanor handling an angry customer. Including the ones who complained, just by how you handle sticky customer service issues.
Dumped their parents in an elderly home and rarely visited. Dumped their children in school for them to raise them for them. Drove their cars around uselessly, bought stuff and watched Tv because they were bored.
There was a guy who said "the boomers will be the first generation whose children look back on with contempt, rather than admiration." So far it sounds pretty accurate.
First?! no. Transcendental Gen of Lincoln and Douglas. Were so unpopular after the Civil War. They wen't from 91% to 44% in one 4 year cycle. They were the Boomer like gen. I think history will repeat here.
A Generation who sucked the entire system dry to buy more crap from Sams Club but yet has the audacity to tell you to pick up an extra paper route to pay for college
@@matturner6890 A huge number of boomers are raising their own grandchildren because their offspring have failed (or died). What I have heard other boomers say is that they should help their kids if they can because today's economics are not in their favor as it was when they were young. That's why they can gift to their children no more than $15,000 per year tax free; boomers helped make that rule for that reason. I am guessing that you and others here are confusing American boomers with American rich people. As for lying, you can say you don't believe me, but you can't say that I am lying because you have no way of knowing.
This is so true. Boomers often become interior hoarders also. They fill the attic, basement, and any extra rooms with neatly labeled carboard boxes full of crap.
My father is 81, the silent generation, and he built a new house on a grocery store salary in 1974, his wife never worked and they had 5 kids, came from no money. Boomers are mostly in their 70s and drive the best cars on the road and have the best 401k's and pensions, my uncle is a boomer at 76 and he owns 3 houses and all he did was work for the state liquor control board, nothing fancy. They had the easiest paths to wealth of any american.
Their path to wealth was adopted massive debt and create programs that completely fuck their grandchildren out of any future. They imported millions of immigrants for cheap labor they weren't willing to do. Now look at the crime. They're a joke.
They also got to grow up with laws that weren’t aimed at destroying you. My uncle and several elderly dudes I know reminisce on being able to drink and drive before the city made it illegal. It used to be just a ticket, they could drink and drive on the beach, they could just say it was the passengers beer and it was a nothing interaction. Now they support the police taxing you for every infraction and use of force because they’re scared of a traffic stop they initiated.
@@user-wr2cd1wy3b yes and no. Im going through this right now because my father just passed away. If the house is left to multiple children it will usually be sold and bought possibly by corporate landlords as a rental. I may have to buyout my siblings for total ownership. But this situation is more common than a boomer or silent gen having only 1 child.
My parents are both 73yo. My mother has dementia & severe osteoporosis, & my father has rheumatoid arthritis, gout & is a raging alcoholic. They recently sold their 3bdrm house I grew up in, to move to a 6bdrm waterfront property. Neither of them are even able to walk upstairs, because of their mobility issues. It's ALL for show. 🙄
bruh I I started readin bd...I'm like oh yea I like where this is going but you're even more of a degenerate abbreviating bedroom bdrm LMAO. I feel for your parents bless them.
They’re no different than any other generation. They are the perfect example of why you can’t give people everything; because they just end up being a bunch of entitled assholes who think the world revolves around them and refuse to give up anything for the greater good. The only difference between the Boomers and other generations is that the Boomers were born in the right place at the right time. You’d be just as greedy and sociopathic if you were born in that time as well.
Latina moms are horrible.. they'll only criticize you as if you were their worst enemy and then try to re-organize/re-decorate all your shit if you sleep on them. Cant Live Without Our Mommas though 😅
My uncle always asks why I rent instead of buy and every time I give him the same answer. Because I didn't have your life uncle Joe. My dad didn't die and leave me a shit load of money like when you bought your house. He genuinely cannot connect the dots that perhaps the large financial windfall he got when he was younger than me helped facilitate his home buying.
My boomer parents refuse to stay at my house because the guest room is too small. They can't seem to understand why their daughter who works in finance making 100k a year still lives in a duplex and drives the same car from 2011. Must be that I suddenly become bad with money.
@@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon I'm in Canada so it's rapidly becoming not alot, and I'm supporting my spouse and I live within my means (no debt) so yes it could be worse but certainly not great, given that in the 80's/90's my boomer father supported a wife and 4 kids in a full sized house on less than half what I make now.
@@katiebarron4706 I live in Canada also. 100k for an entire household income is rapidly becoming a lower class income. I wish you the best of luck. I know dual Doctors that can't afford a house in Canada. Absolutely insane. But hey we are inclusive!!
My grandmother did that to my great grandmother, then let my worthless aunt move into my great grandmother’s home to destroy it then got a reverse mortgage on it and lost it while my great grandmother died in the nursing home. Also changed her will and screwed the family vacation home 😂
Spot on. My boomer mother claims to have “simplified” her life by selling her McMansion in one of the western states. What does simplified look like? Because she sold her house for an ungodly amount, she bought a “farm” just outside of Napa CA that is 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms on 5 acres of land she does NOTHING with. She loves to tout it last appraised for over 5 mil. Yet her kids live in squished apartments, or if lucky, they have a 2 bedroom home that they rent the other room out. She also has openly said she is leaving all her money to charity because then the money will go to something meaningful. And she wonders why no one talks to her…
Don’t you think she might leave the property to you when she dies? That’s what most people do, especially when their kids appreciate them and don’t bitch about how she’s doing what she wants with her life and her investments while she’s alive. You can donate your inheritance if you can’t stand having it, but let her do what she wants with her money and her assets, sheesh!
Boomers get so insanely butthurt if you try explaining this to them, even in the context where they’re assumed to not be personally responsible for this stereotype.
Thats why a lot of boomers vote democrat. They are so high on their horses they don't see reality anymore. (Not to imply Republicans are better). Their reasoning for voting democrat is ludicrous shit tho
Boomers also won't get out of the workforce, causing a traffic jam amongst everyone else beneath them trying to move up in their career. They will rarely mentor people beneath them, either, so when they finally die in their cushy job, they create a competency crisis because they never bothered to show anyone how their job functioned.
True. We have this boomer working the self-checkout at my local supermarket. All he's doing is flirting with female customers and employees all day. I guess he was bored in retirement or can't stand his wife, so this little job gets him out of the house. He pays zero attention to his work and you have to call him every time you need assistance. One time he actually left his post and went somewhere in the store for like ten minutes because a female customer asked him to help find some product which is not even his job. Customers were left waiting for him to come back in order to get assistance in the check-out process. I pray to god they fire this dude and give the job to a younger person who actually needs it.
So true. I'm a so-called "Xennial" who's been in the workforce full-time since the mid-2000s. I see three main reasons Boomers rarely mentor or train their younger subordinates: 1) fear of being replaced by workers who are more technologically adept and efficient; 2) inability to explain their jobs to others, which is usually the result of incompetence or uselessness; 3) 100% focused on their own shit and couldn't be bothered.
Still expect their high paying job, but REFUSE to even LEARN a computer. Expecting gen X and Z to do all that WHILE STILL TAKING FULL PAY as we do our job AND THEIRS.
@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon Yeah, I mentioned the competency crisis they create when they don't mentor people beneath them before leaving their job. Maybe if you bothered to actually read my comment instead of jumping at the first opportunity to flex on the younger generations you'd realize what you were going to type actually isn't a secret, it's literally what I described. I could also address the problem of your generation refusing to hire anyone who wasn't sent to an indoctrination factory where those teachers and professors you mentioned teach kids worthless bullshit in exchange for mountains of unbankruptable debt, but you probably haven't read this far. You're a Boomer, after all.
The fifties was when disney grabbed america by the balls and mass media became god. Tvs and radios in every house and people cared more about that or the beer at the bar than they did the people they lived because "fought for the country" or whatever excuse.
My boomer grandparents, who bought three separate properties on a single income, like to tell me that the reason my rent is $1500 for a studio the size of a shoebox is because I “don’t understand the value of hard work”. But they won’t sell any of the properties.
The irony being, I’ll have a job that pays more than my mother’s, but will pay more renting a studio apt than she pays for a mortgage lmao. What a great time to be alive.
I've heard a story about a guy who bought a neighbor's house, just so he can have some alone time away from his wife. I don't know his age, but I'm guessing he's a boomer.
My grandparents live in the basement of their 3-4 million dollar mansion. They have to turn on the taps on the floor upstairs so the pipes don’t rust. My grandma will replace all the furniture on the main floor every time we go over and my grandfather works to support her spending habits, he just turned 80 and is VP of sales with no education. They came over to my apartment and were like “I thought you were a software engineer! You should be able to buy a house! Shows ya how useful that degree is!”
Can we take a moment to acknowledge they were the last generation to get retirements while only having a high-school diploma Thats why they are so ignorant
The generation of psychopaths that has had complete control over the levers of power since at least the 90's. But will never admit the absolute horror of a world they have created 😅😅😅😅
@@OffGridInvestor I could write a book about this generation, and many people have. What it boils down to is they inherited a solid functioning society from the blood sweat and tears. Of their grandparents and parents, not a perfect civilization by any means but a solid foundation. I know this because I am old enough to have caught the tail end of it. And they proceeded number one by destroying the family unit, in the late 70's and 80"s divorces skyrocketed. Because the number one thing for the boomer generation is PERSONAL HAPPINESS and COMFORT. And they will sacrifice their children and grandchildren to achieve it. And this we worked hard for our wealth, please tell that to millennials and zoomers. Your generation partied its ass of from the late 60's through the 70's. That is of course when you weren't tearing down the very country that allowed you the freedoms you enjoyed. The term " finding myself" was actually a boomer phenomenon. And in the 80's the minority of them got down to the business of adulting that is after consuming huge amounts of cocaine. That made Pablo Escobar a billionaire, and in the 90's the boomers took full control over the power structure. And still have control till this day, with white knuckles on the steering wheel.
You can build a life in America you just need to make over 100 grand a year and that’s just to take care of you and your spouse.. forget about having children Jesus Christ that will ruin you.
My dad was born in 64. He despises his generation. He despises the government. He despises corporations. He used to be a top level manager for several companies. He provided for his kids and was good at what he did. He now renovates mobile homes. He gets mad when his sisters send normie texts and include him in the group chat. He’s a self hating boomer and I love the man. I’m not saying Tim is wrong about boomers…. He’s 100% correct… I’m just saying some exceptions exist.
another thing to note - the boomer stereotypes are true and apply to a majority of them: but only americans. that same generation in most every other country? Wonderful people, "boomer" does not apply to them as an insult. Moral, not only individually but with a self-aware sense of the next generations

@@JessicaLahti Thanks so much, I thought my comment would get buried because there were so many already and that no one would see it. I hope you're doing well.
Not just housing. Even in the trades, there's a few boomers that refuse to retire and let some young guy become an apprentice. My company has three tool and die makers. Me (millenial), gen X, and a boomer. The boomer does 16 hours every day for absolutely no reason, reads the newspaper, management is oblivious to what my department does and we're a year behind on tooling. We asked for an apprentice to grab from the production side and they said that the budget is 3 maximum. They could fire the lazy boomer and give us 2 Gen Z apprentices that will do double his work, each. Awful generation.
They don’t retire because despite all of the advantages, half of them still went absolutely retard-mode and pissed away all of their money…. Absolutely shameful…
I worked at a tool and die shop for a few years. One guy was in his 70s and refused retire. He said the money was too good to retire, even though he had several rental homes and a 100 acre farm. Like geez, leave some houses, jobs and land for the next generation.
I saw so many 70+ year olds driving 10 below the speed limit in brand new SUVs and Luxury cars today. Thanksgiving is a dangerous time to be on the road. It took one of them like 10 minutes to navigate the parking lot at Zaxby's
here in my town, during the day its all brand new f 150s, brand new corvettes, all driven by really old people lol. also all the restaurants during the day are boomer couples know. they are enjoying retirement
@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon Their timing is impeccable.. Rents in (then) luxurious south Orange County CA shot up an unprecedented 400% the exact year I graduated high school.. It's like the whole system the last 25 years was set up by boomers precisely to gaslight, mock and impoverish their children.
boomers literally got rich from a magic atm in the sky. the trillions of dollars of bailout money and low interest rates are the cause of high home prices. they bailed out their bad financial decisions with the next generation.
My wife and I saved every penny and struggled for YEARS to finally get into our home. The DAY we moved in, my dad comes out to my screened porch and says “As soon as you can, you need to get this turned into a sunroom” … okay boomer, let me just invent 30k out of thin air to get a sunroom added into the four bedroom house that is JUST MOVED INTO!
My mom has had her arteries cleaned out twice barely missing a heart attack. She’s had back surgeries. She lives alone on 7 acres of land right across from a Judge who has a million dollar home, lol. She lives an hour from any family and has her house stuffed full of crap. She absolutely refuses to move.
Good luck cleaning out all that crap. I done it in my uncles cottage, was literally taking in 3 tandem trailers PER DAY of scrapmetal. House was full of broken furniture and newspapers and covered in mouse crap. I had to replace 1/3 of the framing and HALF of the wall and outer linings (like the siding) before I moved in. Then there was my dads uncle and that house. PILES of stuff including half his sisters stuff after she died. Just trinkets and old blankets worn thin and crap. We took some stuff from the sisters house "we could use" to either put it in scrapmetal, recycle, burn it and backed up the garbage bins for WEEKS. "We can give it to albert" was code for scrapmetal. Albert was the scrapmetal dealer but another albert was a family friend.
Age 52 GenXer did what I was told to do, getting a degree, not a trade, and went from changing baby diapers at age ten to adult diapers at fifty, for what? My parents and their mothers could have cut a deal to put me in a real house, not one without central air in Miami, Florida, but no! So I ran for Mayor, briefly!
@@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon I lived there for 30 years and hated it. I’m 42. I thank God everyday I live in a quiet neighborhood in close proximity to stores. And we just bought the land behind us.
@@OffGridInvestor we already dealt with it with our MIL house. By the time I inherit it the land will be worth so much I can just haul the trailer off.
My parents are the last of the boomers (mom born in ‘61, dad born in ‘64) and this is so accurate. It’s crazy how they all have this mentality, almost without exception
My dad made six figures as a chemical plant tech in the late 80s after the Air Force (no college degree) got into a wonderful private uni when it was still cheap as shit, built a custom $400,000 home, bought the two properties next to his house, built houses on them and sold them. The boomer way
This was when he was like 28. Meanwhile I’m 26, have a bachelors and make 50k a year and live in an RV. But hey at least I haven’t gone through a divorce yet
@@Peglegkickboxerdude, if you’re an ENGINEER still living with your parents, I have less than 0 hope for myself. I’m not college educated at all, I work at a warehouse making 41k a year. I’m so fucked. 😂😂😂😂😂

I am a lawyer at a pretty big firm and I was having a conversation in the presence of granddad and father about house prices in London. I almost can't afford to rent let alone buy a property. My Granddad said, I kid you not, "why don't you become a typist, that pays a lot". He is constantly having a go at me and my siblings despite not realising he was state funded to fail at being an engineer and a doctor before finding something easy enough like dentistry. These people are completely ignorant about how difficult it is for young people. My Dad was telling me that in the early 80s property in London was almost free; he bought a flat for 2K which is now worth £700k.
My mom has a 3 bedroom house with a basement yard and garage. I have a studio apartment. She came over and started whining that i was ahead of her because i had an automatic dishwasher. I asked her if she wanted to trade. That shut her up real fast.
I’m a boomer and my 88 year old mother will absolutely not move out of her home of 65 years. She tells everyone she is maintaining her own home. Yeah right. My brother and I are exhausted…
This is 100% accurate. You would think a generation of people that witnessed thousands of their fellow citizens be killed on a lie our government told them that lead to the Vietnam War would not be the most propagandized people on the planet either. I truly think it deals with how they were raised. From parents that lost everything in the Great Depression.
@Lothar I seriously hope the Gen Alpha that takes care of you on a nursing home one day forgets to change your diaper for 5 weeks because they are busy playing Roblox
My grandparents are boomers. I love them. I feel the boomers at large chose their own wealth over making this a good country for their children and grandchildren
This is false. The thing with boomers is that they simply just do not fucking die. I’m genuinely convinced an entire life of consuming Monsanto GMO corn syrup has granted them longevity that we never even knew was possible
When my aunt was my landlord she charged me market rate and raised the rent by the legal max every year. This is on an apartment that her FATHER bought and paid off. Its a whole generation of people who have been given everything and are still ready to take more if they can get it. Happy to say I no longer live there, and covid has since LEGALLY BLINDED my aunt. If there is a god, I'd like to thank He/Him for taking that bi*&hes sight.
My uncle inherited MILLIONS in today's terms in property. Kicked out a tenant for an illegal 20 YEAR renovation that ended up being demolished. From 1986 to 1998, so 12 YEARS, he blew a 330 acre farm, 2 apartments and a house and also lost another USELESS farm that was the side of a mountain that couldn't even grow grass. The mortgage on that put him under. He spent 22 years on welfare during all of this and after this. He would open the newspaper and say "my TAXES are paying for THAT" What taxes? My taxes are paying for YOUR WELFARE. He would have all day to fix something but would wait for me or dad to get home from work so WE could fix it. He wouldn't even TRY. This included his car which my dad would be fixing on weekends while he would just STAND there. My grandfather had a stroke building up all this wealth and couldn't work for 2 years trying to recover. He pissed it all in 12 years. I still have the ONLY farm he kept, 50 acres, and inherited a mortgage WITH that farm. 1977 to 2010 and he never paid it off. He got an interest only loan and told his friend he never has to pay it back. He was right, because I HAD TO.
Lol, my Dad owns 3 sports cars. Every holiday, he comes to my apartment and complains about how much his car payments are, while I drive my daughter around in a Honda Accord, lol.
I had some boomer at my work tell me that I don't take up much space since i'm skinny. Didn't bother me, and in the next sentence she started to cry about them moving her to a different building for her job. She complains about everything she hates everything. Very lovely person to talk to. Typical boomer activity.
Its almost as if everyone now agrees having these creatures in society are a giant net negative. Life will only be so much better in every way once they're gone. It's not really possible to coexist with them.
All I can say is my boomer parents grew up with nothing and they've worked hard their whole lives and still do. They never took any government assistance and scraped by. So I have a lot of respect for them. Maybe other people's parents weren't like this.
Its not about working hard. We're all working hard. Its about the fact that Boomers were effectively paid more than twice what we're paid for the same work, and they are responsible for that because of how they voted, and with how they manage their wealth.
Yonger Boomer here, I let my kids stay at my house. That's the best way to share the wealth from what I've seen. I'm from an English background. Kids are expected to be out of the house by the time they graduate from high school or college, and on a path towards creating their own families from scratch. It was really hard for me and my husband with an art and a phycology degree, (Thanks parents and teachers for the crappy advice to go to college and study what you love) to make it but after years of living in roach infested apartments and sending our kids to the New York City public schools, we finally did it. It was all so difficult and stressful then and it's nearly impossible now. If my kids have kids, and I hope they do, I don't want them going to a crappy urban intercity school. I don't want my kids to have to raise children with no help. So, hanging onto the house is how I'm keeping a bit of hard earned money in the family. Sorry bankers, my kids will not be paying a mortgage. Sorry landlords, my kids won't be paying rent. Sorry crappy, innercity, woke governments my kids won't be funding your CRT schools, useless bureaucracies or charity to illegal immigrants. This is what the corporate media is really crying about.
To be fair gen jones (younger boomers) did have it technically less well-off than their older boomer counterparts, especially the ones born in the late 50s early 60s. And Gen Jones are typically the only ones who are willing and able to pass down their knowledge to younger generations, like gen x is. I’m greatful to have them in our lives.
Gen X here, I have exactly the same sentiments concerning my daughter as she gets older. My hubs and I will do anything we possibly can to keep the banking parasites from getting their hooks into her, for college, a house, or otherwise. You can be an honorary Gen X if you like : ) You sound WAY too sane and kind to be a Boomer.
I deal with medical emergencies on aircraft. Yes, the boomers are flying, and theyre causing chaos onboard. They don't take their meds before they fly, they're passing out and hitting their heads. Grandparents need to STAY HOME. Never seen so many people this age trying to jet set.
My wife’s grandmother is sitting on hundreds of acres worth 15 million right now, as she lives alone. Hoarding goods from decades ago. We may get some money when she goes, but we’ll have to work for it as we sift through her BULLSHIT.
My boomer mother picks fights and starts drama to get people to bite back and defend themselves so she can react like the victim. My boomer father in law truly believes he is the world’s leading expert on everything, and he makes stories up about how he goes around dropping wisdom on everyone else.
Another thing that Boomers do constantly is give unsolicited advice, ask super personal questions and make really condescending comments that made sense fifty years ago but are obsolete now. If some millennials choked their boomer parents in their home, I would hate to be the deciding vote on the jury.

I told my mom that my generation is inheriting a bankrupt gov’t and we won’t get social security so we will have to figure out something else out. Her response was so boomerish. She gave me a “meh.”
Tim is spot on. My dad and step mom came by to visit my 2 year old daughter and the whole time My dad’s wife came by talking about how they have 4 empty rooms on the house but are not selling and how much the house is currently worth and how they just bought a new car. Then she talked about her daughter because they payed for her college. Blah blah blah and never once asked about the baby or us or allowed us to say anything about ourselves.

Me: Hey boomer, how did you get your first job? Boomer: (unironically) “Well the guy who owned the restaurant retired and said he’d give me a shot…” Me: ……..
2021: My parents: "So, we will be leaving the house to you after we pass away, and your brother will get the savings." Me: Thanks guys, I love you. 2023: "So, after we sell the house, we might move to Florida." Me: Wait...what? Happy Thanksgiving!😄
Like my place. Offered 12 THINGS to renovste the place. Each time when I was ready for it from 3 months to 3 WEEKS later: "Where's this bloody sense of entitlement come from!!!" Completely destroyed my trust in "their word".
There's about 8 different houses on my street where the owners are one small breeze away from full paralysis and dementia in palliative care. This one guy takes over 5 minutes to get inside his car. Its truly impressive.
Omg yes, we just returned from a family cruise. My 75 yr old father in law leaned over and said, "wanna see how much I spent this week on charge to your room expenses?" I'm thinking, not really, he showed me anyway. Some huge amount, quite braggish...
Worst generation this country ever produced. My boomer parents are like this, everything paid for, big house, no bills yet all they do is complain & act like they are suffering. And oh yeah my brother and I need to "buy some houses". Their retirement plan is to run through their savings and then go back to work at age 75.
Boomers really do hold onto everything until the day they die. I never understood the whole thing where they don’t share their money until they die even when they are not using it themselves! God forbid they share it with their kids and grandkids who are clearly financially struggling. For example, I found out after my grandpa died that he left a half million dollar to the fucking whaling museum, like that doesn’t fucking hurt. Also, one of the boomers I worked for kept telling me “I know we don’t need 7 bedrooms but my husband won’t let me downsize”🤦♀️
Or like jeff bozos ex wife the first thing she did after getting all that easy money for doing jack squat was finance mass abortions of inner city african americans and right after that more were aborted than were born
i love my boomer mom but it kills me when she complains about living on a “fixed income” ($2k from social security each month) while also owning a primary home, vacation home, and 5 additional rental properties. she doesn’t understand why i don’t see her as a victim lol.

My parents made me miss the birth of my second born because they thought one of their business assets was more important than their grandkids. We told them off and then they just stopped helping us financially when we needed it most and still haven’t apologized for the emotional trauma they put us through. It’s all about money for boomers and gen x too. As long as you got your golden parachute fuck the world. My parents don’t want a better life for me they just wanted to dominate their situation. It’s not about love it’s about controlling your kids. I would rather be poor than put up with my parents asking for me to kiss their cheeks in order for them to make things harder and throw money at problems. The older generation is just as shitty as the one before and the one after.
Boomers: they have it better than their parents, and their kids.
They take debts to their grand children to pay for their medical expenses and pension benefits and complain when those kids opt out of society when best they can afford is 50-60% of income going to rent on a shared apartment.
And when the boomers are finally on their deathbed, we will be envious of that too because we know that when it's our turn, we will have to pay like 3 month's salary just to be able to take a nap on the side of the road and be devoured by wild dogs.
Well, I guess we should have pulled ourselves by our bootstraps and had a firmer handshake.
Do you really think Boomers start off where they are now? It always amazes me that even college graduates think they are going to make the same amount as a person who has worked in the profession for ten, fifteen, or 20 years. There are things you just don't learn by going to college, or working for a few years. You learn them through experience. It's things that don't seem important to you, or seem beneath you right now. If you aren't totally reliable, and a hard worker, they are just waiting for you to quit, or mess up so they can get someone else. If you're rude, or a trouble maker the same thing. This is 101 to being a valuable employee. In order to get a promotion you have to pay attention and learn quickly, be methodical, and accurate in your work. And some jobs you have to do all that, work quickly, be able to problem solve, and find solutions quickly. If you work with the public/customers/clients you must be pleasant, helpful, and have impeccable customer service skills. You can't get angry if someone yells at you, or insults you. You have to calmly tell them that your are there to help, and ask them what the problem is. Then you ask them if a solution will help them, and tell them you are sorry this happened, and it matters to you. They aren't usually really angry with you in the first place. They may have had a bad day, going through something in their life, or perhaps they do have a legitimate complaint. It's hurts the reputation of a business when they argue or are rude to a customer, even if the customer is wrong. I look at them while they are talking, so they know I'm really listening. You can gain many loyal customers who witness your demeanor handling an angry customer. Including the ones who complained, just by how you handle sticky customer service issues.

Facts they are terrible hoarders
My father is 81, the silent generation, and he built a new house on a grocery store salary in 1974, his wife never worked and they had 5 kids, came from no money. Boomers are mostly in their 70s and drive the best cars on the road and have the best 401k's and pensions, my uncle is a boomer at 76 and he owns 3 houses and all he did was work for the state liquor control board, nothing fancy. They had the easiest paths to wealth of any american.
Their path to wealth was adopted massive debt and create programs that completely fuck their grandchildren out of any future. They imported millions of immigrants for cheap labor they weren't willing to do. Now look at the crime. They're a joke.
Of anyone in the world period. They had to try to fuck up back then.
They also got to grow up with laws that weren’t aimed at destroying you. My uncle and several elderly dudes I know reminisce on being able to drink and drive before the city made it illegal. It used to be just a ticket, they could drink and drive on the beach, they could just say it was the passengers beer and it was a nothing interaction. Now they support the police taxing you for every infraction and use of force because they’re scared of a traffic stop they initiated.
If they hold onto their houses than their kids get the house though, and it doesn't go into the perma-rent abyss of BR
@@user-wr2cd1wy3b yes and no. Im going through this right now because my father just passed away. If the house is left to multiple children it will usually be sold and bought possibly by corporate landlords as a rental. I may have to buyout my siblings for total ownership.

My parents are both 73yo. My mother has dementia & severe osteoporosis, & my father has rheumatoid arthritis, gout & is a raging alcoholic.

They’re no different than any other generation. They are the perfect example of why you can’t give people everything; because they just end up being a bunch of entitled assholes who think the world revolves around them and refuse to give up anything for the greater good.
The only difference between the Boomers and other generations is that the Boomers were born in the right place at the right time. You’d be just as greedy and sociopathic if you were born in that time as well.

My dad didn't die and leave me a shit load of money like when you bought your house. He genuinely cannot connect the dots that perhaps the large financial windfall he got when he was younger than me helped facilitate his home buying.
My boomer parents refuse to stay at my house because the guest room is too small. They can't seem to understand why their daughter who works in finance making 100k a year still lives in a duplex and drives the same car from 2011. Must be that I suddenly become bad with money.

Spot on. My boomer mother claims to have “simplified” her life by selling her McMansion in one of the western states. What does simplified look like? Because she sold her house for an ungodly amount, she bought a “farm” just outside of Napa CA that is 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms on 5 acres of land she does NOTHING with. She loves to tout it last appraised for over 5 mil. Yet her kids live in squished apartments, or if lucky, they have a 2 bedroom home that they rent the other room out. She also has openly said she is leaving all her money to charity because then the money will go to something meaningful. And she wonders why no one talks to her…
No disrespect to you but what a horrible thing to do… a family could be raised there instead it’s a sour old coot all by herself
Don’t you think she might leave the property to you when she dies? That’s what most people do, especially when their kids appreciate them and don’t bitch about how she’s doing what she wants with her life and her investments while she’s alive.

You can explain it everyday, five times a day and they'll never get it. Also they are so scared of death they'll do anything
Boomers also won't get out of the workforce, causing a traffic jam amongst everyone else beneath them trying to move up in their career. They will rarely mentor people beneath them, either, so when they finally die in their cushy job, they create a competency crisis because they never bothered to show anyone how their job functioned.
As Gen Xer, I've been dealing with this my whole professional career.
True. We have this boomer working the self-checkout at my local supermarket. All he's doing is flirting with female customers and employees all day. I guess he was bored in retirement or can't stand his wife, so this little job gets him out of the house. He pays zero attention to his work and you have to call him every time you need assistance. One time he actually left his post and went somewhere in the store for like ten minutes because a female customer asked him to help find some product which is not even his job. Customers were left waiting for him to come back in order to get assistance in the check-out process. I pray to god they fire this dude and give the job to a younger person who actually needs it.
So true. I'm a so-called "Xennial" who's been in the workforce full-time since the mid-2000s. I see three main reasons Boomers rarely mentor or train their younger subordinates: 1) fear of being replaced by workers who are more technologically adept and efficient; 2) inability to explain their jobs to others, which is usually the result of incompetence or uselessness; 3) 100% focused on their own shit and couldn't be bothered.
Still expect their high paying job, but REFUSE to even LEARN a computer. Expecting gen X and Z to do all that WHILE STILL TAKING FULL PAY as we do our job AND THEIRS.
@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon Yeah, I mentioned the competency crisis they create when they don't mentor people beneath them before leaving their job. Maybe if you bothered to actually read my comment instead of jumping at the first opportunity to flex on the younger generations you'd realize what you were going to type actually isn't a secret, it's literally what I described. I could also address the problem of your generation refusing to hire anyone who wasn't sent to an indoctrination factory where those teachers and professors you mentioned teach kids worthless bullshit in exchange for mountains of unbankruptable debt, but you probably haven't read this far. You're a Boomer, after all.

The fifties was when disney grabbed america by the balls and mass media became god. Tvs and radios in every house and people cared more about that or the beer at the bar than they did the people they lived because "fought for the country" or whatever excuse.
It's just another way to blame a demographic rather than the people that f*ed us.

@@OffGridInvestor I could write a book about this generation, and many people have. What it boils down to is they inherited a solid functioning society from the blood sweat and tears. Of their grandparents and parents, not a perfect civilization by any means but a solid foundation. I know this because I am old enough to have caught the tail end of it. And they proceeded number one by destroying the family unit, in the late 70's and 80"s divorces skyrocketed. Because the number one thing for the boomer generation is PERSONAL HAPPINESS and COMFORT. And they will sacrifice their children and grandchildren to achieve it. And this we worked hard for our wealth, please tell that to millennials and zoomers. Your generation partied its ass of from the late 60's through the 70's. That is of course when you weren't tearing down the very country that allowed you the freedoms you enjoyed. The term " finding myself" was actually a boomer phenomenon. And in the 80's the minority of them got down to the business of adulting that is after consuming huge amounts of cocaine. That made Pablo Escobar a billionaire, and in the 90's the boomers took full control over the power structure. And still have control till this day, with white knuckles on the steering wheel.

Not just housing. Even in the trades, there's a few boomers that refuse to retire and let some young guy become an apprentice. My company has three tool and die makers. Me (millenial), gen X, and a boomer. The boomer does 16 hours every day for absolutely no reason, reads the newspaper, management is oblivious to what my department does and we're a year behind on tooling. We asked for an apprentice to grab from the production side and they said that the budget is 3 maximum. They could fire the lazy boomer and give us 2 Gen Z apprentices that will do double his work, each. Awful generation.
They don’t retire because despite all of the advantages, half of them still went absolutely retard-mode and pissed away all of their money…. Absolutely shameful…
I worked at a tool and die shop for a few years. One guy was in his 70s and refused retire. He said the money was too good to retire, even though he had several rental homes and a 100 acre farm. Like geez, leave some houses, jobs and land for the next generation.

All my boomer dad talks about is the value of his home and even other homes he could have bought or something lol.
same same.
@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon i own my home sir.
@LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon Their timing is impeccable.. Rents in (then) luxurious south Orange County CA shot up an unprecedented 400% the exact year I graduated high school.. It's like the whole system the last 25 years was set up by boomers precisely to gaslight, mock and impoverish their children.
boomers literally got rich from a magic atm in the sky. the trillions of dollars of bailout money and low interest rates are the cause of high home prices. they bailed out their bad financial decisions with the next generation.
That's why you should pay what the boomer seller wants, you can do the same in 50 years
My wife and I saved every penny and struggled for YEARS to finally get into our home. The DAY we moved in, my dad comes out to my screened porch and says “As soon as you can, you need to get this turned into a sunroom” … okay boomer, let me just invent 30k out of thin air to get a sunroom added into the four bedroom house that is JUST MOVED INTO!
My mom has had her arteries cleaned out twice barely missing a heart attack. She’s had back surgeries. She lives alone on 7 acres of land right across from a Judge who has a million dollar home, lol. She lives an hour from any family and has her house stuffed full of crap. She absolutely refuses to move.
Good luck cleaning out all that crap. I done it in my uncles cottage, was literally taking in 3 tandem trailers PER DAY of scrapmetal. House was full of broken furniture and newspapers and covered in mouse crap. I had to replace 1/3 of the framing and HALF of the wall and outer linings (like the siding) before I moved in. Then there was my dads uncle and that house. PILES of stuff including half his sisters stuff after she died. Just trinkets and old blankets worn thin and crap. We took some stuff from the sisters house "we could use" to either put it in scrapmetal, recycle, burn it and backed up the garbage bins for WEEKS. "We can give it to albert" was code for scrapmetal. Albert was the scrapmetal dealer but another albert was a family friend.

I am a lawyer at a pretty big firm and I was having a conversation in the presence of granddad and father about house prices in London. I almost can't afford to rent let alone buy a property. My Granddad said, I kid you not, "why don't you become a typist, that pays a lot". He is constantly having a go at me and my siblings despite not realising he was state funded to fail at being an engineer and a doctor before finding something easy enough like dentistry. These people are completely ignorant about how difficult it is for young people. My Dad was telling me that in the early 80s property in London was almost free; he bought a flat for 2K which is now worth £700k.
And Gens X, Y, & Z will be spending their entire lives trying to clean up the messes boomers made.
Or just let it burn "A child who does not feel the warmth of home will burn the house down to feel the fire" - old chinese saying

This is 100% accurate.

When my aunt was my landlord she charged me market rate and raised the rent by the legal max every year. This is on an apartment that her FATHER bought and paid off. Its a whole generation of people who have been given everything and are still ready to take more if they can get it. Happy to say I no longer live there, and covid has since LEGALLY BLINDED my aunt. If there is a god, I'd like to thank He/Him for taking that bi*&hes sight.
My uncle inherited MILLIONS in today's terms in property. Kicked out a tenant for an illegal 20 YEAR renovation that ended up being demolished. From 1986 to 1998, so 12 YEARS, he blew a 330 acre farm, 2 apartments and a house and also lost another USELESS farm that was the side of a mountain that couldn't even grow grass. The mortgage on that put him under. He spent 22 years on welfare during all of this and after this. He would open the newspaper and say "my TAXES are paying for THAT" What taxes? My taxes are paying for YOUR WELFARE. He would have all day to fix something but would wait for me or dad to get home from work so WE could fix it. He wouldn't even TRY. This included his car which my dad would be fixing on weekends while he would just STAND there. My grandfather had a stroke building up all this wealth and couldn't work for 2 years trying to recover. He pissed it all in 12 years. I still have the ONLY farm he kept, 50 acres, and inherited a mortgage WITH that farm. 1977 to 2010 and he never paid it off. He got an interest only loan and told his friend he never has to pay it back. He was right, because I HAD TO.

A whole generation that actually missed the point of being alive, having a family or a society, the society they say they fear loosing.
and what did they contribute? all modern tech is from gen x/millennials. boomers will go down as the worst generation in history.
Their divorce rates and immigration policies say otherwise
They don't give a fuck about society, because they won't have to fight through the collapse to survive
I had some boomer at my work tell me that I don't take up much space since i'm skinny. Didn't bother me, and in the next sentence she started to cry about them moving her to a different building for her job. She complains about everything she hates everything. Very lovely person to talk to. Typical boomer activity.
I would've said "that's because I don't earn enough to eat like you".
Its almost as if everyone now agrees having these creatures in society are a giant net negative. Life will only be so much better in every way once they're gone. It's not really possible to coexist with them.
All I can say is my boomer parents grew up with nothing and they've worked hard their whole lives and still do. They never took any government assistance and scraped by. So I have a lot of respect for them. Maybe other people's parents weren't like this.
Its not about working hard. We're all working hard. Its about the fact that Boomers were effectively paid more than twice what we're paid for the same work, and they are responsible for that because of how they voted, and with how they manage their wealth.
Tim its more than double 30k in 1980 is like 150k today
Yonger Boomer here, I let my kids stay at my house. That's the best way to share the wealth from what I've seen. I'm from an English background. Kids are expected to be out of the house by the time they graduate from high school or college, and on a path towards creating their own families from scratch. It was really hard for me and my husband with an art and a phycology degree, (Thanks parents and teachers for the crappy advice to go to college and study what you love) to make it but after years of living in roach infested apartments and sending our kids to the New York City public schools, we finally did it. It was all so difficult and stressful then and it's nearly impossible now. If my kids have kids, and I hope they do, I don't want them going to a crappy urban intercity school. I don't want my kids to have to raise children with no help. So, hanging onto the house is how I'm keeping a bit of hard earned money in the family. Sorry bankers, my kids will not be paying a mortgage. Sorry landlords, my kids won't be paying rent. Sorry crappy, innercity, woke governments my kids won't be funding your CRT schools, useless bureaucracies or charity to illegal immigrants.
This is what the corporate media is really crying about.
To be fair gen jones (younger boomers) did have it technically less well-off than their older boomer counterparts, especially the ones born in the late 50s early 60s. And Gen Jones are typically the only ones who are willing and able to pass down their knowledge to younger generations, like gen x is.
I’m greatful to have them in our lives.
Here's your "Honorary Zoomer" badge grandma. Be sure to display it when the Zoomer Stasi come around looking to lighten "the Zoomer's burdens." Soon.

Theyre also thinking "we are too old to move"
I deal with medical emergencies on aircraft. Yes, the boomers are flying, and theyre causing chaos onboard. They don't take their meds before they fly, they're passing out and hitting their heads. Grandparents need to STAY HOME. Never seen so many people this age trying to jet set.

My wife’s grandmother is sitting on hundreds of acres worth 15 million right now, as she lives alone. Hoarding goods from decades ago. We may get some money when she goes, but we’ll have to work for it as we sift through her BULLSHIT.
My boomer mother picks fights and starts drama to get people to bite back and defend themselves so she can react like the victim.
My boomer father in law truly believes he is the world’s leading expert on everything, and he makes stories up about how he goes around dropping wisdom on everyone else.
Another thing that Boomers do constantly is give unsolicited advice, ask super personal questions and make really condescending comments that made sense fifty years ago but are obsolete now. If some millennials choked their boomer parents in their home, I would hate to be the deciding vote on the jury.
And they repeat long winded and boring anecdotes over and over with impunity.
"Damn judge I think he did it but he should still inherit the assets your honor its for the greater good of the society he will manage it way better for the greater good of the community"

Tim is spot on. My dad and step mom came by to visit my 2 year old daughter and the whole time My dad’s wife came by talking about how they have 4 empty rooms on the house but are not selling and how much the house is currently worth and how they just bought a new car. Then she talked about her daughter because they payed for her college. Blah blah blah and never once asked about the baby or us or allowed us to say anything about ourselves. Then proceed to talk crap about millennials. At the end of they day they will get what ever the younger generations have to give and deal with inflated prices at the end of the day
When the next generation that gets in power they will regret their greed

My boomer mom says hey aren't those the blind kids? I say yes, but they can still hear just fine mom so please can we not do this today....
Boomers really do hold onto everything until the day they die. I never understood the whole thing where they don’t share their money until they die even when they are not using it themselves! God forbid they share it with their kids and grandkids who are clearly financially struggling. For example, I found out after my grandpa died that he left a half million dollar to the fucking whaling museum, like that doesn’t fucking hurt. Also, one of the boomers I worked for kept telling me “I know we don’t need 7 bedrooms but my husband won’t let me downsize”🤦♀️
half a million to a museum?? 😂 😂 😂 The saddest thing about it is that we know probably 1 percent of that money went to the actual museum smh 🤦🏿♂️
