Middle-aged and elders partying! Clutch my pearls. Guess what, kids? When you grow up you can have as much fun as your health and funding support, so don't scrimp on retirement savings.

chuckle If you are just over 55, you are GenX, not a Baby Boomer.

Our generation is so overlooked that they are not even able to falsely accuse us :-)

Don't worry, when you retire there will be a new word to replace Boomer as a derogatory word for retirees (and I guess GenX will also become derogatory).

Poor reporting.

Very poor. Sloppy. Like ‘hey this tv drama show exists and is my supporting evidence…’ what? The economist, too. Weird. Usually better quality overall. This is just weirdly written like a 12 yo that’s been on the facebooks reading anti-boomer propaganda too long.

Also, someone needs to get laid and smoke a joint. I’m not even joking. Feel bad for the kid. But I don’t see a byline on this, so I’m not sure who.

The Economist doesn't use bylines for their articles: https://medium.economist.com/why-are-the-economists-writers-...

Exactly!
