I missed out on apps that directed me to the wrong place
Or microphones attached to all my "smart" devices that listen and label all my conversations
Not to mention that track me 24/7
Or bots in other countries to "cancel" me over an opinion
Or pervs contacting my pre-teens in their bedroom in the middle of the night
Or my bank accounts/credit cards getting hacked from Russia
Or banks freezing/canceling my accts because of a purchase
Or my checking acct being drained due to a card reader at a gas pump
Or my identity being stolen by clicking on an email
We just didnt know how terrible our lives were back then

Streaming TV services (worthless)
Highly subjective. Having only one is typically $10/month and cheaper than cable.
You like an out of touch dried up old fart. Thanks for screwing up this country for us, ya greedy ignorant. What a bogus over generalization from your soap box of blind judgement.

I think you missed the word "national" in that graphic
Most of the debt on your chart has zero to do with oil changes, streaming, tires, etc
The debt on that list is sent to other countries, paid to people that dont work, and overpriced projects, studies, grants, salaries, etc

Aren’t you the poster that said if you couldn’t pay cash for your home or car you shouldn’t buy it?
Posted on 10/18/24 at 4:45 pm to BabyTac
there were no first time home buyers program- you saved till you got your 20% or built it yourself with family and friends

So universities, oil change places, roadside assistance, restaurants, and maid services didn't exist until gen x was of age?

It’s actually a stereotype. Being closed minded would be not being able to find common ground with people like that

There are 15 items on that list.
I pay for 9 of them.
Does that make me younger or older than a boomer!

Has technology really been a boon to people's lives? I mean, look, it's clearly taught you to be a hateful, bitter little shite. Perhaps tech has caused society to falter in many ways. People are less self reliant, less sociable, mental and physical health problems have exploded, obesity is rampant. Technology is being used to control you.
