Also mean means nothing when you have billionaires included. The massive difference between the financial classes makes averaging them together a worthless endeavor. Most boomers are not millionaires. Probably the vast majority of them are not millionaires. I'd guess (without any research) that the median net worth of boomers would be somewhere in the 100k-300k range.
Median is the superior measure with these arguments.
And agreed. Also people always leave out the grannies who lost their husband and then the house and are borderline destitute. Or the boomer with a now million dollar home that *isnt* paid off cause they did a few reverse mortgages over the years to pay for repairs or medical bills or whatever life threw at them and they're now almost under water.
They're retired. They own a house. They worked their entire lives to get there. That's actually not that much money considering it's a house and an entire life's work of retirement funds.
The traitor generations worked for a lot less than they gave themselves in hand-outs. They take far more out of the social security ponzi and federally insured pension scams than they ever put in, they take far more out of medicare than they ever put in, and rape the young thrice over.
First by taxing their children more than twice as much as Pharaoh, second by taking out massive debts in their name under the guise of "federal deficit", and third by devaluing their currency so that real wages are decreased every year.
I had a hard time understanding how Hell could be just until I understood the boomer.
