Bull. This country peaked about 25 years ago. At 40 I can’t afford the house my parents bought in 1970 when they were 25. My parents, divorced of couse, are both millionaires on paper- neither has any college. We have no manufacturing base left, we are completely dependent on foreign oil, immigration has turned this country into the next Brazil, and all signs point to a prolonged recession.
Enterprising Americans can turn these challenges into opportunities. It’s definitely a buyer’s market for home buyers right now.
I think Gen X is at a disadvantage from all the opportunities we’ve been handed. We’ve never learned how to “do without” and sacrifice. My parents were children during WWII and they never wanted me to go without like they did.
