High Boomer population still working due to economic downturn. Don't make this about Boomers.

It's always been about boomers unfortunately. Who do ya think caused the crash in the first place?

Well hang on 90's kids. We're one presidential signature away from an economic fast track!

Wyoming has lakes and rivers, which both have beaches so you could have beachfront property in Wyoming.

We can only hope I 'spose, and those smart asses were right, there are some beautiful lakes in WY. Jenny lake is easily the prettiest, though I fear it's a bit out of your way

Wow. Some peple need to destroy every joke. Why is it so important for you degenerates? I Imagine famousone sitting a home drooling into his keyboard every day and night, pondering how to disprove the next punchline. I remember all of you complaining about where. At least the people there have humor. This site is tame, and full of smart asses. Fuck you loosers

Soooo, boomers are just supposed to stop working for your convenience? My dad likes working and has property taxes to pay.

No, people who had advantages never before seen in human history should have saved enough to retire, but they fucked up and now can’t quit working. Or selfishly they don’t feel obligated to move into the next phase of their; I know a boomer who’s had a six figure job for fourty years, paid off their home 20 years ago (bought for 90K, now worth 400K), has multiple pension plans and savings and just took a leave of absence to hang around the house for a year. Meanwhile the rest of us are trying to raise families.

It's funny. I've never felt the need to horde toilet paper. It's always been pretty cheap, available, and I've never thought it wouldn't be. In thirty years if toilet paper is worth $100 a sheet I'll wonder- "why didn't I fold more, did I really need 6 sheets?!" Someone may yell at me, asking why I had to use it to blow my nose instead of a washable handkerchief, or about how I'd used whole roles in my youth for art projects. They'd curse my name as they were poised over the crapper with a corn cob pressed to their rear and a grimace on their face. For yes future child, before you were born the toilet paper was plenty, and we were so wasteful. My bottom has been pampered in ways yours will never know future child. But the truth is, if you're in a bathroom with one roll of paper for everyone, and every time you look someone is taking more, more people keep coming in non stop- you will grab that paper too, and probably more than you need, because you don't want to be left out.

Hmm. My father has no pension. A modest home with a $6000 annual property tax, a vehicle lease payment, utility bills, various insurance bills. He works a part time job so he has money for hunting, camping and fishing excursions, he saved enough to retire modestly but still likes to work. Now some asshole guest thinks he fucked up and is taking something from him. Bullshit. You’re allowed to work as long as you are willing and able.

They could go to a trade school but apparently they're too good for that.

The specifics make this true by default- as no the boomers didn't exist or were younger than retirement age before previous generations. The idea of an older generation being blamed for economic problems, or a wealthy class being blamed, lack of opportunity, and other things listed here are echoed through history however- and not always completely correct. The boomers are also responsible for many positive things such as the internet and modern computing, which are two industries where many young people have the most advantage and opportunity, and where some of the worlds richest 90's kids have made their fortunes. The economy isn't adversarial. It wasn't boomers that destroyed these things, but negative human traits 90's kids can and are as guilty of like greed, seeking easy money, and lack of foresight and willingness to sacrifice comfort and entertainment for the greater good or future gain. So yes, many boomers made the world worse but people have been doing that long before them.
