I am a boomer. I am not a trust fund baby. I went to work at 13 to help buy necessities for my household. I worked my way through college and helped my husband get his college degree.
I did not have health insurance during this time, and arranged payments whenever my family needed dental care or hospitalization.
I have never had a student loan, or been on welfare. I saved money to send my children to college, and for my retirement.
I also helped my parents pay their bills. I retired 5 years ago to take care of my elderly father who would otherwise have to be in a nursing home.
I do not appreciate comments which lump me in with trust fund babies.
Maybe you didn't follow with the "crowd" and I'm sure there were a few of you but your generation will not have a very good name when the history books are written...unless of course we become a full blown Communist nation.

You, my dear, are a minority. :)
Looking back on what I said, I realize that it may seem I was talking about the entire generation. That wasn't was meant; merely most of it.
How does it make you feel to see most of your generation act like spoiled brats?
