    It’s actually a pretty good article that gets into all that…

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/what-happens-when-a-whole-generation-never-grows-up/ar-AA1wMMaJ

    The fact that someone dumb enough to still be on Twitter only reads headlines shouldn’t surprise anyone.

        You forgot the ultimate hobby of lawn care. I swear it is what is keeping my old neighbors alive and they live for it.

          Mine needs more clover and native wildflowers. It has some already, it just needs more. Meadow grass mix of some kind, hopefully grows deeper roots.

          My lawn can parch and die, but I love my sensory, moss, pollinator, assorted sedum, shade, and herb gardens.

      Except that it doesn’t consider the divide between haves and have-nots in those averages. The have-nots used to be able to afford a house; despite the average wealth increasing, it’s not really been reflected in the purchasing power of the lower class workers.

      Thank you for the actual context, so refreshing to see someone actually look at what was written.
