I know, I know, I know... I'm just interested if you do and if so how old you are?

This is the last 'fuck you' from the baby boomers. They took the secure corporate and government jobs with the guaranteed pay rises and final salary pension schemes and benefitted from property they bought cheap and sold dear. They burnt the bridges behind them by colluding with the dismantling of the very things that had brought them prosperity. Their last act will be to burn the economy before they die"

I do and I'm in my early 20's

My parents, (calling last night from the holiday home) bought their 3 bed semi in suburbia for £14k. My mum only ever had 'pin money' type jobs and most of the time sah. They have no clue.

That doesnt mean some people the same age dont feel differently (the teachers i spoke to yesterday were in mourning!), but for my parents their baby boomer status is relevant.
