A Yale professor says America is now an 'oldigarchy'--and Boomers on LinkedIn are enraged

[Raftergirl]

15. And I'm a boomer who paid $240k in college tuition for my kid. I didn't whine that my father only paid $25k

for me. And the economy sucked after I graduated in ‘74. Does no one remember stagflation?

And no idea what my grandparent’s paid for my mother’s college education at an elite college in the late 40’s. It certainly was a lot less than what my father paid for me or my sister.

When my kid graduated in 2015, his first job paid $80/yr. He now makes more than double what my H made after 30 years. And he owns 3 homes.

I guess it’s time to start blaming millennial generation for hoarding wealth. /s

All people do is whine and blame others for everything.

There are ways to accumulate wealth regardless of the economy one is coming of age in. But no one wants to listen.
