"GORR: What did the boomers do with their money?
SALT: We spent it on housing and funding the lifestyle of generation Y. …This global financial crisis is the first time anyone has looked in generation Y’s young, twentysomething eyes and said, “No, you can’t have what you want. If you toss in your job and go to London,
there ain’t no jobs there, either. You just have to work through this.” Sometimes in life, generation Y, the appropriate response is not to dump and run because you don’t like it. It’s to work through a problem, learn and come out stronger the other side.
McCrindle: This is the recession that generation Y had to have in terms of that character readjustment.
GORR: Is generation Y that bad?
SALT, McCrindle, Huntley: Yes.
Suck it up kids…
