You boomers lack self awareness.

The LACKING self awareness is all your Sparky.

I worked my arse of from the age of 16 until today. I gave my children everything I could and continue to do so today and now to my grandchildren. Each of my children are wonderful accomplished people with beautiful values and virtue.

Just because you are a piece of shite whose parents detest you doesnt mean you know anything except that they find you detestable.

STFU ABOUT SHITE ABOUT WHICH YOU KNOW NOTHING.

Their likely disgust for what you have turned out to be is almost certainly completely sourced from your ingrate vacuous nonsense and personal weaknesses likely expressed in just about every possible way

Looks like there are some mad spend-it-all Boomers in this very thread, Eli. I guess they have some regrets.

Fist thing, look in the mirror - there you will find the one responsible for whatever comes in the future in your life

2nd STFU about things of which you have no clue. A lot of peoploe were raised to reasonably think - just because you cant doesnt even register with thinking folks...

There’s always been a couple old people in congress, but Trump was the oldest president ever elected until Biden was “elected”. Pelosi is in her 80s. The republicans tend to be a lot younger than the democrats in congress and on the courts, but it’s absurd how old are current leadership is. All these people are going to be dead before the next decade and are the ones making the decisions. People are fully justified in complaining about that

Then the thread isn’t about you? Why are you hurt by people criticizing boomers? I don’t give a shite when people criticize millennials because there are plenty of millennials that need criticism. You need to toughen up

Questions:

How much have these Boomers paid for their kids educations and getting their starts?

Did their kids go to private school?

Did their kids have a car in high school?

Did their kids have to take loans or did they pay for their college educations?

Average cost to raise a kid in the USA to age 17 is almost $234k. LINK Seems like they may have pre-paid.

This. I've told my mom, over and over, that she can leave it all to charity, just choose wisely, but not to leave it all to my __________ who needs the money, but is completely irresponsible and would blow it on the third spouse's irresponsible kids who would use it on drugs and booze and more drugs and probably spend it all on a trip to Vegas.

My wife and I are set, unless the whole thing blows up, and then, we have real assets that are secluded and will still be okay. I hope she leaves it all to charity.

I am toughened - another deep misconception from a young "HOLLERBOY" trying to say shite that doesnt come close to matching the truth. THAT is your issue.

It is comical how poor your self awareness is. With every post you make, you validate every single stereotype ever made about boomers. Just an old man screaming at clouds because he refuses to accept responsibility for destroying a once great nation.

This is precisely the point, you liver spotted bastard. Your generation spent the last 40+ years voting for policies that cratered American industry and straddled future generations with debt to pay for your selfish desires.

Now in your final frick you to everyone else, you’re partying in Vegas and laughing at Facebook memes.

I dont know everything about you - only marginal things from what you present here.

THAT IS WHY I POSTED THE QUOTED. I AM FAIRLY CERTAIN THAT IS ON TARGET.

Now back to your hypocritical HOLLERINGBOY routine already in progress...

I don’t understand your gripe. You are angry at boomers because they voted for their best self interest and are doing what they want with their finances? Why? How did someone you don’t know affect your life so much that you obsess over an entire generation of people so much so that you go out of your way to insult them?

This is the kind of leftists that sensible people hate. Spoiled kids who have zero desire to succeed on their own. So instead their jealousy turns to anger and they can’t see how petulant and childish they are. Grow up and stop being a bitch.

You realize spending money means that it goes to other people? Like those with jobs?

I almost never see Facebook and am still going to work 4 days a week for the next couple of months when I will be retiring to start a new business. I am considering the possibility of working a few hours per week so I can continue as one director of a regional Planning Commission Organization. There are some super interesting projects we work on I continue to want a [smaller] part of.

I mean, your points are sound but how are the people justified in complaining about the fact THEY voted in these old fricks?

I’m not angry about any of that. I’m not even angry, only perplexed by the insistence of some boomers to accept zero responsibility for the role they’ve played in crippling this nation. The amount of blame shifting being done by some in the generation that controlled the country for half a century is incredible.

You think I’m a leftist because I expect boomers to hold themselves to the same standard they demand everyone else be held to?

Ok.

Why does it matter? My father (and grandfathers) all did very well for themselves, I told them I’d be happy if they left nothing as they’ve paid for my education and instilled values that are priceless. They are appreciative of my take, but know that they’ve sacrificed to make sure my family will never go without as I will to my kids and grandkids. I’ll pass the same mindset along that you need to make your own but I’ll leave you one step ahead. It’s generational thinking and it’s not for everyone. As my late grandfather said “why can’t everyone just mind their own damn business”

I think your a leftist because you believe that ones lot in life is determined by anyone other than themselves.

Personal responsibility goes a long way. I’m not even 40 yet and just accepting responsibility for your own actions for your lot in life clarifies who you can become as a good person.

Trying push your life on others choices is just childish.
