Millennials are more than their over filtered selfies and food truck preferences. They are extremely financial conscience!
Why? In an age with rising living costs and tuition debt, they are reportedly worse off financially than generations before.
Yikes.
So what do you do when the world’s got you down? As a millennial, you take to social media to vent your frustrations against the generations holding them down.
Let’s take a look at some millennial thoughts about the differences between them and boomers.
15. That is a nice sentiment.
Everybody loves to get cards.
A person receives a Christmas card in the mail.
?#Traditionalists, #BabyBoomers and #GenX'ers: Immediately take the time to mail one back to the sender. ??
?#Millennials: Immediately send a text to the sender thanking them for the Christmas card. ?

14. This is true.
But does that make you better?

13. Oh snap!
Doesn’t seem like that was such a good idea now, was it?
Funny how the generation that gave us participation trophies is now complaining how we're not competitive enough.#Millennials #babyboomers

12. Whoa.
Mom… time to get with the times.
My mom worked in IT for 20+ years, but asked me how to mobile deposit a check. This is the difference between #babyboomers & #Millennials.

11. Truer words have never been spoken.
That guy DID make A LOT of money. Jeezus…

10. They’re gonna change the world, y’all!

9. They’re pure evil.
Nobody covers up beauty like that and gets away with it!

6. Definitely a generational difference.
Money is fun to have, I guess.
BABY BOOMERS AT 30: when I retire im gonna buy a boat, a corvette, and a timeshare in the Florida Keys
MILLENNIALS AT 30: so ive been reusing my k-cups 3 times lately instead of 2 and like, the 3rd cup really isn't too bad I guess lol

5. You really should be paying more attention to the road.
You could hurt somebody.
It’s so sweet that baby boomers stopped watching TV long enough to tell millennials to get off their phones.

4. I mean… there are 30 years in between now and then…
You might want to enjoy them. Money helps.
the news: world is going to be uninhabitable by 2050
also the news: why won't millennials invest in longterm purchases??— Sophia Benoit (@1followernodad) May 20, 2017
3. I never thought of it that way, but it makes a lot of sense.
Now who wants to do brunch?
Millennials love brunch because we can't afford breakfast AND lunch.

2. Yeah, but because you have money, means you can’t support the industries.
Why doesn’t this make sense?!?
Anytime Millenials are “saving” an industry, it’s something cheap, and everything we “kill” an industry it’s something expensive, and no one’s put it together that our entire generation just has no money, and we’re trying to livehttps://t.co/RzNxj1As5W

Actually, I’m not really that sad.
"millennials killed department stores" baby boomers killed the polar bears but right right right my deepest apologies to jc penny

Now, these may not have solved the world’s problems, but at least they are getting it off their chests.
Have any funny thoughts about millennials or boomers you want to share?
