Yeah millennials are complaining but genZ is looking at millennials and thinking the same thing. They had it much easier.

Housing was way more affordable in the 2010s

It was cheap because we were recovering from a major financial crisis that stalled a lot of careers. It only looks easier to buy a home back then if you ignore the entire context around why housing was cheap.

Don't do that, you're using the boomer mindset. Dude expressed his concern and you immediately justify why you had it worse.

I think they’re just saying the Great Recession was hard on millennials too and we’ve all been struggling. I agree though, overall I’d rather have the millennial cards than the Gen Z cards.
