Have a great job? You're very exceptional. The vast majority of people are not in this category. It is especially true for the Millennials - a generation who will probably be worse off than their parents. The news is that many of them must move back home. Some are out on the street.
Most baby boomers never had to experience, this. Instead, their problems are not saving enough for retirement, working longer than they wanted to, losing homes, aging and illness (selves and parents), sky rocketing medical costs, medicines that may help but cause more illness and shorter life. I guess this group is not one to trade places with either. Though they had a lot more opportunities in their working years, they are bygone days.
I'm an older on the spectrum baby boomer. My son is a millennial, since I gave birth at an older age. I had to get to the dentist for a tooth problem, a few months ago. I just went back to the one I used to have when I had dental insurance. They would let me pay out of pocket.
The receptionist remembered me from when I used to go regularly. She also remembered my son. She asked how he was doing. I asked her if she knew about the job problem and how a lot of millennials are moving back home. I didn't think she knew, she didn't say.
She seemed like a baby boomer herself that had to keep on working. She probably was busy trying to survive herself, too weary to care about what was going on in our wiped out job market. At least she had a job. But she had to notice the waning number of people going to the dentist these days.
"Well," I said," he doesn't have to move back home!" Meaning - not doing great, but okay for now. One of the more fortunate millennials, but for how long. Being prepared is a key if you at least want to be okay. I'm not saying my son prepared, my husband and I prepared so he could be okay. It helped us to be okay too.
Papa-pepper made a great help advice video a couple of weeks ago:
Could be a help for the Millennials, too. I'm going to have my son watch it.
