Gen X here. Couldn’t buy a house until I was 35.

    Millennial here. Over half of my friends will never own a house. And we are in the cheapest part of Canada to buy houses in.

    I'm a millennial but I was gonna say this meme would be more appropriate if you replaced millennial with Gen X, you guys got the shit end of the stuck just like the rest of us unfortunately.

    They got more affordable housing than we did though. Young millennials have to deal with $500K+ houses, but genX had $100-200K houses throughout the 90s and early 00s during a booming economy.

    Nothing like boomers though, with their cheap ass sub $100K houses.

    There is no genx community on Lemmy and the sub was interesting. Does anyone want to make a community for it?

    That would take effort. Does anyone from GenX really wanna do that?

    Will do. Unfortunately my instance temporarily blocked immunity creation and I don't want more centralization on Lemmy.world I kind of like the idea of genx being on sh.itjust.works so I'll just wait.
