Maybe we should just institute a tax on complaining about millennials then we could afford to fix the country baby boomers ran into the ground.

Imagine being a baby boomer and needing to take out a reverse mortgage after your hay day of unprecedented success. All to get some new Velcro shoes and go on that cruise to Paradise Island.

LOL. Boomers are personally responsible but then you quote a report showing the opposite!?

The cost of raising a family during an inferno of inflation, add to that the deindustrialization of the US economy then a steep recession that wiped out billions in retirement savings.

It's a huge problem for just about anybody trying to buy a home out here in Colorado. The median home value for the county I live in is over $500k. I'm grateful I bought in nearly 20 years ago. I couldn't even touch anything in this area if I were to be buying now. Hell, the average rent here is over $1600.

LaPlata County?

LaPlata County?

Not where I am, no. I did check and La Plata county’s median home price is $345k.

Dude. My home's value has gone up 50% since I bought this house 10 years ago. It's insane.

And yes, they're high. It's Colorado

I don't miss anything Elway (Chiefs Fan)

I miss everything I moved there for and experienced.
