Boomers: how to keep their hands out of our pockets

[Sp5]

Glad to see Bitcoin finding so much acceptance in this community. Not all of you might see it for what it is today, but sooner or later it will become clear that it is the last remaining save harbor for an entire generation (millenials) to protect themselves from the coming fascist government onslaught on your future!

It might be very unwise to NOT take - at least - a very close look at it!

Bitcoin may be the International Postal Reply Coupon investment opportunity of our time! Who cares if there's no government backing it up, no person or company who can be found to be sued, or no real assets which could be attached and seized by a court?

When Uncle Moonstar and Aunt Sunshine start reminding you what they're owed in retirement, just remind them how they spent their youth. And be sure to tell them you "don't trust anyone over 30".

Technically, I was born in the last year of the Boom, 1958. But those older boomers who got all the gravy can kiss my ass. When I showed up in the mid-70's to get on the train, I was told was it had left the station. I spent my college years seething at the effing TA's who acted like their bowel movements didn't stink because they had "been around in the 60's, Dude". I had hoped punk rock would finish off their legacy, but the assholes found a way to hijack that movement.

I thought real men don't complain, they just put there head down and try harder.

The last generation grew up in a time when they could have there cake and eat it, probably for the first time in modern history. If money was always there why would they think it will stop coming.

The elites are stealing your money, not the boomers. The 1% group that owns 99% of the wealth and soon they will be coming for your piggy banks.

That is what I was alluding to earlier in the thread. It isn't the boomers' fault that they were born into a population boom and credit-fueled economy; both of which were caused by the policies of the previous generation.

And if you think it's bad in the US, it's a LOT worse in Australia, where the entire economy is geared towards boomers' real estate.

Finally... its my fathers generation (born 1938) that truly fucked things up. They were mostly conservatives also but they let feminism gain importance during their watch .The baby boomers actually had been born into this new world of feminism and liberalism. Real income has been going down for baby boomers due party to supply and demand..more women in the work force means lower pay for all. Much of the liberalism(hippies) and other attributes of the baby boomers is because they growign up i na world where they had to be more beta to get chicks. Becoming a war protesting hippy was a way to get chicks. I blame the previous generation. Baby boomers just benefited from some of the resources available but if you think about it they suffered also. They are probably the first generation to have to go though NO FAULT divorces.
They also are working longer than any generation due to stock losses. The generation x'ers will actually being so few probably have many workers to support us and Y also due to immigration. The problem with boomers is that there is so MANY of them.That's the real problem. They are very large!
One benefit they also lose out is inheritances. Since their parents had so many kids they have to share it lol. Thus leaving those under them with less.
Realize there are 2 different sections of baby boomers as well.
