But the boomers were a much bigger percent of the population than millennials are today, so of course they’d own more?

Do you think these percentages line up?

What about the relative cost of a semester of college in 1970-80 vs today? Or the relative cost of housing?

Someone did some math on the cost of housing taking into account lower interest rates (thus lower payments), plus inflation and actually outside of a few select markets, houses don't cost that much more.
