You all realize that the millenials are actually on the verge of pushing 40 now, right?
The Z's are now exiting college and entering the workforce and are a little more laid back than we are used to or comfortable with. I'm pretty sure it is generation X who are pushing 40. I guess there are probably some sources that say otherwise but I grew up in as generation x and I sure as HECK do not want to be considered a millennial. Xers are into their late 40s / early 50s now.....

Happy birthday!...I once saw a joke that said "children are the greatest wealth reducing substance known to man"...I'm not sure it is a joke.

As a parent, I know that the kids are greatest wealth reducing substance know to man/woman. My high school freshman would like to go on a school trip to Japan ($4000), choir tour ($1000), and a leadership conference ($1,000), not to mention all the other activities she is involved in ($$$). She will be able to do two of these items, the other she will have to wait to do until she can pay her own way!

I used to think this too, but I now realize that airplanes are the greatest wealth reducing substance.

Perhaps, but you're much less likely to wind up with a surprise airplane from having too much to drink (not accusing anyone here, just a general statement).

LOL...You can also sell an airplane and not be responsible for it...Kids are a permanent affliction (or at least financially for 18 years). :0

One of them young'uns I hired a while bank came to me on her first day to tell me that she'll be registering for her college classes that week. She was very surprised, seriously, when I had to tell her that she couldn't take classes during her 8-5 M-F work hours. You tell them work ours are 8 - 5 M-F but who knew you had to tell them you must be present to win a paycheck.
