      Yeah, you'd end up with that mindset growing up and spending more than half of your life thinking you could be actually dead by tomorrow and only get a 20 minute warning of your impending fiery doom at any time at best and everything and everyone you care about will be suddenly dust.

    He’s not wrong. My parents are Baby Boomers and they acquired the property for their first house for free and moving an existing structure to it for $100. Yet they still claim that their success was due solely to their drive.

    Boomers: Go to post-secondary, get a degree, and you'll get a good job where you can earn enough to buy a house!
    Millennials: Ok! :D
    Millennials: [Do exactly what they're told, but since nowadays post-secondary education = $100,000+ loan you have to pay back for the next 10+ years & jobs don't pay as much (If you can even get one in your field at all), you likely end up working at the service industry or working 2+ jobs just to make ends meet]
    Boomers: Ugh, why won't you buy things and own stuff like when I was your age?

      There are alternative ways to open doors and increase your worth on the job market other than earning a degree. You are 100% correct about college being overpriced, in the last 30 years the cost has risen 800% of the cost of living, more than anything else ! The reason is simple, the government decided to get into the banking business and started making student loans, once the colleges saw that students could borrow as much money as they need, they continually raised their tuition cost. This is called unintended consequences.
