As an older millennial (33), I couldn't agree more.
We're living in boom times, and one layoff or closure will make people rethink their behavior. I don't care how expensive a place is, you're just an idiot, plain and simple, if you're a 25-year old straight out of school, no kids/dependents, making 150k and can't afford to put away 15-30k/year. People will bitch and bitch about high rents, student loan payments, high taxes, etc. but it's like, show some discipline and skip the $30/person brunch for _one weekend_.
