Tim’s line of “their kids were there to support them emotionally and not the other way around” is so true to my and my friend’s experience

Same here, my mother would drink and talk to me like I was her adult girlfriend. Telling me things a kid shouldn’t hear. I’m raising my kids so differently than I was raised its really strange. Gen X’ers grew up with almost NO parental supervision. It was fun but also really destructive.

[@shellylofgren]

For boomers and senior citizens, the current market and economy are unnecessarily harder. I'm used to simply purchasing and holding assets, which doesn't seem applicable to the current volatile market, and inflation is catching up with my portfolio. My biggest concern is whether I'll survive after retirement.

[@donna_martins]

Just buy and invest in Gold or other reliable stock , the government has failed us and we cant keep living like this.

[@Walter_hill_]

Yes, gold is a great investment and a good bet against the devaluating dollar, been holding some for awhile now, I’m grateful my adviser’s moment by moment changes in the market are lightening quick, cos who know how much losses I would’ve had by now.

My dad was the ultimate boomer. Only cared about himself, never met my kids even though he lived 20 minutes away, spent every dollar he ever made and inherited. He was sure to take credit for how his kids turned out but fought everything the whole way. He fought paying for college or anything but made sure to tell everyone how smart and accomplished his kids were. The ultimate boomer

The boomers are no different than any other generation. They might have gotten lucky to be born in the time and place that they did, but any generation would have turned out like the boomers had they grown up in the same conditions.

George Carlin on Boomers: Whiney, narcissistic, self-indulgent people, with a simple philosophy: “gimme-it it’s mine”! “give-me-that it’s mine”! These people were given everything. Everything was handed to them, and they took it all. Took it all. Sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll. And they stayed loaded for twenty years, and had a free ride, but now they’re staring down the barrel of middle-age burn-out, and they don’t like it. They don’t like it so they’ve turned self-righteous, and they want to make things hard on younger people.

[@yQaT735M]

Yep. I'm glad people are noticing this. They are the most whiny, arrogant, and spoiled generation in American history. They literally blamed Millennials for the 2009 banking crisis. We were in high school at the time. Boomers never take responsibility for anything.

[@scottstarck293]

I'm a huge fan of Carlin, but his daughter called him the "ultimate laissez faire parent" and was just as much of the sex, drugs, and rock and roll turned self righteous culture as the people he complained about. I suppose the troll of Dillion's book is that a non-repentant-addicted-to-cocaine-sub-prime-mortgage-broker turned single man that drives a Bentley between his 5M+ estates in the Hamptons and Beverly Hills is complaining about the greed, excess, and selfishness of his parents generation.

[@angusdog22]

When Tim said “we were there to support THEM emotionally” I felt that. My mom is a boomer I’m Gen X and as a 10yr old she’d talk to me like I was her 35 yr old girlfriend. I love my mother but I really, really , really HATE the boomer generation. Tom Wolfe nailed it when he dubbed them the “ME” generation. As a result the Gen X generation were like feral children. Most of my childhood was unsupervised, which actually was kinda fun but didn’t help me get ready for life as a successful, well rounded adult. I kinda had to figure it out on my own.

[@Dex000x]

The greatest generation is the one that raised the worst generation in history.

[@bronsonbamnallen1633]

the generation that birthed the boomers

[@kate2create738]

The thing about the Greatest Generation is they EARNED that title, it was given to them by someone who was older than they were. They turned a economic collapsed isolated country into becoming the most influential and powerful society to have practically existed, while their goal in mind was to just survive either a harsh economy or the most vicious war ever. That generation sacrificed so much, and chances are they had their flaws too, in the end history proves that they contributed the greatest achievements imaginable. To think their kids nearly every decade had some influence that would backfire on the rest of the country, the world, other generations, all because of how many just became so entitled.

[@timmystool3349]

The reason all this is true is because they were the first generation to be given easy access to the “upper middle class” while being heavily brainwashed by corporate/global interests

[@dallasryder8125]

I mean, they barred minorities until the government stepped in(even then YMMV) from wealth. Now universally all races of younger people are getting “the boomer piglet dick”

[@umiluv]

This is true. The TV totally brainwashed them. They are an absolutely messed up generation.

[@johncharleson8733]

[@AndrewReevesArt]

[@angusdog22]

The greatest Generation got it wrong handing everything to Boomers. As a generation that lived through extreme poverty ( Great Depression) and a horrific world war it makes sense. They gave them everything they thought they wanted. But they got it wrong, the greatest gift you can give your kids is the confidence of self reliance, resilience and personal responsibility.

[@ryank6322]

That's what I was thinking. The greatest generation was too self-sacrificing and gave rise to a generation that never had to self-sacrifice at all.

[@Pangora2]

Any successful generation has to deal with how to hand off what was built up. It is their greatest failing that it happened like this. You have to hand down the morality to sustain things as well.

[@floridaman4073]

Anyone who thinks they have a right to someone else's money is gross. I have heard people talk about what they get when someone dies, it made me ill. If your parents chose to live a certain life because they want to leave something for their kids, then fine. But there should be ZERO Expectation of doing so. It's great your parents help you when they can. But would you want them to deny themselves things just for a Nursing Home to get it all??

As a boomer myself, I can attest to my generation being as bad as any in history. As someone who was out there protesting the Viet Nam war and then turn around and see my generation start one war after another thru my lifetime is depressing. We thought we were going to be the peace generation and, instead, we became the perpetual war generation. As someone who was a hippie living on a commune at one time (I ended up dedicating my life to making money), to watch my generation ruin the planet chasing a buck is depressing. We thought we were going to be the back to earth generation and, instead, we became the disgusting materialistic generation. As someone who believed in equality for all and prosperity for all to watch my generation destroy the working class in America is depressing. We thought we were going to be the love generation and, instead, we became the hate generation - racism, classism, xenophobia, religious hatred, cultural hatred - we've got it all. To watch politics deteriorate to the pandering to the 1% at the expense of everyone else is depressing. We thought we were going to have the most fair minded, equality driven, generous, magnanimous government ever. Instead, it has been the exact opposite. To watch our generation destroy the planet with impunity in the name of chasing a buck is depressing. We thought we were going to save the earth, instead we are full bore towards destroying it. We had John Kennedy and Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King. All murdered. That was the previous generation. Our generation has vomited up Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Beyond depressing.

@@mares3841 I’ve seen Tim on other podcasts and those hosts don’t talk over him, interrupt, or be louder than the guest except for this guy, he does that sort of stuff the most and if he had something great to add it wild because fine, but he’s just annoying and takes the spotlight away from the guest who the audience is there to hear.

Gen X is kicking back watching all of this and saying “what a shitshow!” 😂

[@nachobizness1231]

it was the movement from primarily rural to primarily urban life that happened during the “greatest generation”. kids no longer grew up working hand in hand with their parents, grandparents, siblings on the farm, all working to accomplish a common goal, survival of the family. it just changed the culture and ethics of society.

I'm 37, my dad was born in 1935, served through Korea and into Vietnam (forged his birth certificate to join younger than legally allowed, he didn't have one until he joined up). He was WAY different than the parents of other kids that were young enough to be his kids. A true member of the silent generation, and I am so thankful I was raised by him instead of by some limp wristed weaklings like so many of the other kids.

WOKE is a Gen X thing Tim. They were doing it in the 90's when millennials were just being born. You attribute the things you grew up with to being "your generation" when really you were a child and those things were created by the previous generations. 70's movies for example were not created by Gen X. 80's stuff was not created by 80's kids.. etc etc

[@richardbullwood5941]

As a 53-year-old man, I can confirm all of this. I was born in 1970. My mom and dad divorced when I was very young, and they have to be the most self-centered people I've ever met. They weren't particularly good parents, they didn't really care, and they really didn't put much time or effort into me. They lived like adult children for most of their lives, and now, 70's, are whining and crying that they aren't young anymore and they can't do the things that young people do. My mom hasn't even worked since the 1980s. They only care about themselves, they care absolutely nothing at all for my kids, they don't care about me, and they have already blown through most of the money they inherited from their parents. They have a bad surprise coming. I know they are so selfish and stupid as to think I'm going to rush in and take care of them when they are old, but they've gotten to live Decades of a lifestyle my wife and I will never live. Because we work and we put everything we have into our kids. I actually look forward to the day when I can tell them that they're free ride is over and now they have to do what I have always done. Look after myself

[@ryank6322]

The millenials grew up with social media which made attention-seeking into "normal" behavior. I stay off that stuff for that very reason. I don't seek attention, honestly don't want it, and try to spend my time doing productive things to ensure I have a nice future.

I was adopted and my parents used to complain at times when me and my brother would ask for things. Mentioned to us how much more richer they would be without us or the cars and clothes they can’t buy because of us. I would think 1: we came with a check every month and two they didn’t have to say yes,they had an actual choice. Always perplexed me.

[@MindPalaceGrowth]

Agreed, same exact situation. Left scratching my head, I was one of 5 adopted with them getting checks every month. I worked as a kid while I was with them in foster care for 5 or 6 year, then adopted...and again worked for them to pay my keep as they say. Still unhappy of the "burden" all of us kids were. We either served their purpose or ignored and deemed useless when we became 18. They kept controll by knowing all my fears, created new ones so I'd be afraid of independence, and used threats of abandonment if I didn't do what they wanted. All forms of control from a Narcissist whom I can tell they enjoyed my tournament. Gaslighting me all the way through young adult hood until I became wiser and had time to get distance from their toxicity. Once the checks stopped and they lost control over me, they lost interest as well. I do say that they did have good intentions along the way when they first adopted all of us kids. They helped pay for college and adopted me so I wouldn't be left to age out of the system. I learned a lot from life's challenges and traumas along the way and look back and feel greatful for learning those lessons and gaining wisdom so I can become a mindful parent. There's a lesson in all experiences, even the hardest ones. Yet it's good to remember that Hell is paved with good intentions too...

Omg. Yes! They resented us for sure! Lol. Mum shoved me in full time when I was 5 weeks old because, you know, "Why on earth shouldn't I have had a career and social life Em? I mean...for goodness sake! The world doesn't revolve around you!" It was my mum's 70's birthday last night. Her speach was all about how hard she and my stepdad worked and why they "deserve every single bit of success" they have enjoyed because of "how hard" they worked, how important her friends are to her...not one mention of my brother's, myself or our children lol. Btw, neither my stepdad nor my mum "worked hard". They both worked in the Australian Public Service. My stepdad still jokes "I learnt never to look out of the window in the morning at work...if you did, you'd have nothing to do in the afternoon." hahaha. They bought their home and holiday house for a pitance and berate us because we haven't bought houses ourselves. Oh...the funniest moment: mum put a "Climent Action Now" sign on their letterbox...they take at least five OS flights every years, drive everywhere etc. They just have no idea!

They have millenials and Gen Zs partly backwards. Millennials were the 80s and 90s babies that would use every slur and insult in the book, would do drugs pretty recreationally, had a middling rate of teen pregnancy, etc. Gen Zs do less drugs than prior generations, have less sex, are generally more anxious, and more progressive. Euphoria is not at all a representation of a typical California school.

[@Pangora2]

GenZ is less progressive than millennials. You are right on the other stuff. Z doesn't bother with sex or drugs because what's the point? They are burnt out cynics before they even get a job.
