With no political implications intended, IMO, the sad thing is that all young people are going to be burdened with our nation’s debt and other issues by varying degrees, and even those from wealthy families may find their dreams unattainable.
Using my kid’s friends in their 20’s and early 30’s as a barometer, we’re currently seeing about a 50/50 success rate (i.e.–getting their dream job, buying a home, etc.) playing out in their lives. At this point it time it’s difficult to know if things will get better or worse for them in the future, but, again, IMO, a life of unfulfilled dreams isn’t much of a life–regardless of your financial situation.
