Yeah, sure like they'd ever be able to afford it. College, rent, food, car.
Isn't that what Credit Cards are for? :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:
Uh, I'm a Millenial and I wouldn't buy Beats, or a $14k TV, and could buy a ton of each in cash... (but don't want to)
So stop with Millenial bashing.
It's not just Millenials...I'm 45, live in a nice modest home that was just under $100k, drive a 1994 truck, and make over $60k/year. Bought my wife a nice, late model used car last year for $13.4k, so we have a car payment. I pay my bills, but I'm certainly not getting ahead. Then I see others my age and younger who have a $300k house, two brand new cars, and three kids that they store in day care because they are busy working all the time to pay the bills. I hate to imagine their debt, and I don't understand the desire to have all this "stuff", and no time to enjoy the important things.

I work to live rather than live to work. But I'm not stupid with spending and did something more with my career than make coffee drinks at Starbucks.

You only need 4 different licenses to own a tank. Just don't ask me how to actually get said licenses, I'd have to go ask a high school kid who has way to much time on his hands.
