I feel this. It's not much fun being a end of Millennial. Maybe other generations felt this getting passed over but in general my friends who are older than me by a few years have fared a lot worse than those who are a few years younger than me. Some punk song summed it up
Where we'll sell you dreams then make you work for free
They handed us an economy thats destined us for poverty
Then have the nerve to call us soft and lazy for complaining
Cause they're from a generation where you could be what you wanted to be
But baby I'm a 90's kid
- deepdriver 4y agoMale life expectancy at birth in Russia fell by six years between 1991 and 1994. A drop that fast was practically unprecedented in developed economies. It’s not fun being a Millennial, as I know firsthand, but nothing comparable to 90s Russia in the aggregate. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41294-021-00169-w https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41294-021-00169-w
- calvinmorrison 4y agoFor sure, I was just commenting that it seems like sometimes generations get skipped. Pre-fall russians reminisce about the good times, people who skipped it entirely might see the better post soviet times, someone who got smacked in the early money making part of their career... less so.
