  • As a whole, Baby Boomers, those born between 1946 -1964, believe they have worked hard, sacrificed, and paid their dues - and that the younger generation is entitled and sits on social media all day, expecting to get everything handed to them. However, Gen Z, those born between 1997 - 2012, blame Baby Boomers for the current state of the environment and the economy. Since 2019, the hashtag #okboomer has been used 3.7 B times on TikTok to describe a Baby Boomer being “out of touch.” Is Gen Z really being coddled, whereas Boomers “pulled themselves up by their bootstraps”? And, how is that affecting their mental health? Dr. Phil discusses these generational differences -- societal values, work ethic, use of technology -- and if these two generations, 50 years apart, are really that different, after all. (21029RR)

    As a 21 year old, it’s just hard to find the motivation when I make 17.65/hr 40 hrs a week and cannot get an apartment unless I am with a roommate let alone having to have a good credit score, and other requirements just to spend over 1,000 for rent and utilities every month. And on top of that is I try to get into government help like amha, food stamps, then I automatically make too much with the hours I work. It’s just now you have to find people that will take a chance on you even when you already know your worth and work ethic. I absolutely love my job I’m a phone repair tech but the cost of living now is just unreasonably high and it really sucks because as a young girl I always wanted a family in a decent house, decent yard and be able to do what I need and want for my children, but now we have to really lower our standards which is fine but why were we in a better cost of living in the first place if what we used to have we can’t even provide unless we are barely seeing our families, like I want to see my baby grow up instead of working my life away and then they are moving out. It’s just really sad and stressful to think about.

      Leilani, You're actually doing incredibly well for only being 21. A lot of people are still in college with a roommate at your age. Don't beat yourself up. I was making $8.75 when I was 21 (10 years ago). Also, unless you literally have to go days without eating due to not even being able to afford a 5$ sandwich, or have kids depending on you, you probably won't get accepted for EBT/food stamps. They're reserved for people who are at risk of not getting any nutrition via lack of food. I fell on hard times myself after getting shot in multiple places, and unfortunately couldn't work so had to get food stamps myself. Hated having to rely on somebody to pay for me to eat, but I was losing a ton of weight from only being able to afford to eat MAYBE once a day. Plus heart problems from malnutrition. There are food pantries you could go to though if you absolutely need to.

I know I do enough to get by, but a lot of people have a savings account and it’s just extremely hard for me to save money and it makes me feel so unaccomplished when I hear people have like 12k in their savings around my age while I live paycheck to paycheck. Also, I did want to say I am very sorry to hear about your circumstances you were in. It really sucks the cost of living just keeps getting more and more expensive, at this point it’s better to build a treehouse in the woods and grow your own crops or get a mobile home honestly which I have been thinking about if I could save up the money for it.

      ​@@randomxl25 yeah common sense is good and all.
      I use 1970 as an example. Average earning was about 17K, across the country. In 2020 that average was about 68k.
      The average price of a home in the 70s was roughly 25k. So a full year of work would cover largely 60/70ish compared to the annual earnings.
      The average home in 2020 cost 284k. So the average earnings from that year are roughly in the low 20s of percentage for paying that off.
      And you understand how an average wage would work right that 50% of people are paid less than that and it typically does slant out of favor from younger people.
      So effectively and this is if we're just using the national averages, it is effectively 3 times harder for everyone to buy a house.
      And this is just a single type of expense explained like this.
      If it was adjusted to the modern inflation that 25k house is estimated to go on the market for 184k.
      That 17K, in 2020 would it be the equivalent of being paid 125 k annually.
      You old people need to stop exaggerating how well you did anything. You were genuinely paid more than twice as much as we are, even if you took lower salaries.
      The average 30-40k annual income of someone young now is the equivalent of living off roughly $4-5k a year which in those times would be less than $400 a month.

    I don’t think boomers understand how difficult it is to get started in America’s current economy. When they were younger, things were much simpler (and I envy them for that) it’s not that we have no work ethic, we ARE working!! It’s just hard because we have nothing to show for it other than simply surviving. We can’t move out because rent is too high and the housing market is insane. We can’t save large amounts of money because the cost of living is so high. The depression that comes with this often causes people to not want to work. Not because they are lazy, but because of true motivation. Stepping out into a world on fire is extremely anxiety inducing. Please look at the whole picture before accusing and entire generation of people.

    • @lizze490

      Yeah, well it would be nice if people that weren't even born stopped saying how easy and simple it was then. In the 60s, an unmarried woman would have a tough time even getting a credit card. Most families of 6-8 had one car and grew up in a house with one bathroom. We grew a garden to save money, canned, sewed clothes and walked everywhere. Yes, shockingly MANY mothers also had to have paid jobs. Kids actually had regular chores often without an allowance. Young men turning 18 were forced into the draft to fight an illegitimate war. Oh yeah, there were also student loans and most kids' parents DID NOT pay for college. Everyone had roommates and struggled with rent and costs, believe me- it was not easy. Try buying a house with 18 percent mortgage rates like in the early 80s. These struggles are not new or unique. It has always been hard for average-earning people to save for a down payment. Very hard.

      And you don't seem to understand how difficult it was for a BLACK MALE BOOMER to even eat in the same restaurant as your parents in 1963. We also couldn't get a house (discrimination), vote (we were shot, or hanged or lynched), get adequate education (ever hear of Brown vs. the Board of Education in 1954)? You paint your complaints with a wide brushstroke, tarring over the plight of Blacks in 1956, who had a WAY harder time than you (and it was your grandfathers and grandmothers and fathers and mothers who did this). So, realign your criticism of BOOMERS, because many of us are Black and we didn't get diddly in that era.

      Its called an entry level job because nobody gets hired as managers or CEO. It takes years to get promoted. Ever hear your grandparents say how they would walk to work and work 12 hour shifts 6 days a week? Actually talk to your parents. 100% they will say how they spent years gaining experience, making minimum wage, and getting crapped on at work for decades. Its takes years to build skills, gain a reputation, and a work history. Gen z will not put in the work.

I make $15-$17 because that's what Medicaid/Medicare pays for my line of work in my state. I work full time and it's honestly not enough. With inflation since COVID going up 40% where I live, you need to make $24 to live comfortably now. The fast food restaurant that I live nearby pays $14.40 starting out. I've been really angry with the economical situation. Back in the 80`s people with bachelor's degrees could afford to make a good living. Now people can't. My sister also recently got her bachelor's in law and constitutional studies and she makes just a little more than I do. Same with my friend with a degree in computer science. There are very few growth opportunities for gen z and millennials. We are also seeing a lot of 40 year old + people going back to school and taking our starter positions at companies because they would rather hire older people due to the stigma around millennials and gen z. So not only are we competing against our age group for work, but the older generation too. We are broke, angry, in debt, and the song "Allen Town" really is hitting our vibe.

Not only that, I do security camera installations on the side. My work ethic is solid until I get to the point to where I don't get proper rest and eventually crash. That's when I become sluggish. Even with all these hours, I can't afford to live on my own. Sometimes I question what's the point of all this? Work for a place that doesn't really give af about you, deal with customers that are unnecessarily rude, do repetitive unfulfilling work, and have little time for yourself because you have to finish school that is probably putting you in debt (student loans) that you'll have to pay off once you get a better paying job.

Then there are others who are high maintenance to have as employees. They call in "sick", check their phones, do minimal work for maximum pay, want to go full time immediately and bypass senior workers, are concerned about how work tasks "make them feel", and cannot communicate properly if there are work problems. They will also do a half-baked job at work tasks when they were trained otherwise, and then not take accountability when caught.

    There’s a bigger issue here than simply “ not wanting to work “ .
    Key points :
    - hurt people, hurt people
    - perpetuated anger from our aggressive race
    - unruly cost of living
    - neglect stemming from a broken system resulting in higher aggression levels
    Honestly, this system’s long since been broken. And what we have now is the fall out of Gen x and Y and their neglect toward their children at the cost of convenient outlets used to influence us into investing more time than necessary to these under paying jobs . Consider all of the issues the younger generations are processing at the result of the older generations neglect and aggressive projections.
    Ultimately, humans need to take two steps back before continuing to hit the same brick wall while expecting a different outcome .
    Oh, and don’t forget about the effects of systemic racism and prejudice contributing to forcing many into lesser job positions

The discoveries we have now such as the Polio vaccine, measles, cancer treatments, Ride shares, new technology etc could have saved tens of millions of people back then.

It is an illusion to think that is not great. It’s really not a bad spot to be in when most of our generation is in college, or approaching graduation, and building up debt, or focusing on being a full time student, or the many others that do not work at all.

    Not to say all gen z are lazy but idk I feel like back in the days when it was older ppl working they took their job seriously even if they were not getting paid much some had 2 to 3 jobs and wasn't complaining. I was one myself I had 3 jobs and went to school some jobs didn't paid much, but I made it work and was able to save $18,000 and move out. And never did I treat any customers bad. But then again that's just me also my friends were the same too, and we made the best with the job we had, but now in days all I hear from the new generation is oh I want to go home, and are short tempered, no patience, get upset quick. For example how come in McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, food use to all taste soo good, even though they wasn't getting paid well, but they we're serious about giving good customer experience, and they cared about how they did the food and they taste soo good, now in days those food chain taste horrible 🤮 bc they don't want to work and complain to much, and catch an attitude and give you bad order. Then you gotta go back and tell them hey my nuggets are cold and stale, same along with the fries, and coffee and they look at you like your wrong. Is not given for free the customer paid for it and should get what they paid for, not Luke warm, and stale food otherwise say hey we sell cold and stale food then we understand what we getting 😒 I worked in everything type of job, clothing store, hotel, office even when they had Blimpies I made good sandwiches when I worked their before they closed down and went for another job which btw I don't know why they closed. But yeah I have many experience, and made sure when Idid my job I did well, and when I worked with refunds on clothes which is a pain in the butt I did and so on. So when I see ppl complain in their job it's annoying to see, and many quit their jobs at a drop of a hat 🤷‍♀️
    The only complain I have is on price inflation is making everything to dang expensive, and hard for young ppl to move on their own. And just everything is expensive Is causing stress on ppl. And their should be a protest to not raise no more prices on everything, give the ppl a break 😐

      The young aren’t all liberal and the old aren’t all conservative. Also, why tf are you bringing politics into here? “This damn liberals are too soft. Back in my day, if we called a disabled person anything but a retard people made fun of you.”

    Besides college there are a lot of good paying blue collar jobs.But you have to develop a skill.Trades are short handed these days but you will work for your money.They pay very well.Problem is younger generation doesn’t want to do physical labor.
