Many boomers had parents from the greatest generation. Those from the silent, like me, are sun categorized as jones generation. We grew up staring at

The Vietnam war, protests, threats of Cold War, only being able to buy 3 gallons of gas every other day(twice), housing high and interest rates in the 6–7%, dealing with massive and fast tech changes, first and second gulf wars, war on terror, and ageism in the workplace we can’t retire from for 4–7 years.

Not all roses for boomers and Jones’s.
