    Correct.

    I’ve spent my life watching boomers live in a manner FAR less frugal than what myself and my peers consider normal. I am in my 40s.

    My grandparents had 3 children and a house and did a Hawaii trip every other year. My grandpa was a used car salesman that never stayed at one job more than a few years at a time and my grandma had part time jobs off and on.

    We are not living in the same economic reality they did/are.
