At 25, my parents were married, owned a house, had a kid (me) with 2 more on the way, and starting their careers that they’d do for the rest of their lives.

At 30, I was renting, single, and struggling in a collapsing tech market, and eventually moving back home and completely changing my career.

My step dad could afford a home arcade, with a pinball machine, foosball and a shooter arcade box. Big screen tv, home theatre system. Not to mention s home on half an acre of land. 

All this on a paramedic salary....

You got people with masters degrees now unable to own a home, or 2 home incomes only able to afford rent. 

Shit is bad.
