I guess the older Gen X could have been part of that. The younger ones were still finishing up college and just starting their careers when the economy crashed for the first, but not last time in their lives. The youngest ones joined the workforce just after the dot com bust.
You may be a millennial in spirit, which is what really counts, but I don’t think most people typically consider people born after ~1995 millennials. Being shaped by the years 2000-2010 I always felt was the defining factor, with all that happened technologically and socially.
Makes sense. Boomers were still young enough to be relevant. GenX was comfortable with their disposable income. And us millennials were in highschool.
GenX didn’t have much disposable income in 99, but you didn’t need much to have fun.
In 99 people were throwing cash around like crazy, it was a wild time (before the dotcom crash)

Pre 9/11 it was pretty chill. All the externalities were hidden away from view.
Not at millennials, there were 5 year old millennials
Either way, childhood were blissful years in the 90s
I’m a millenial. I was 9.
I’m a millennial. I was -5

Oh yeah?! You calling me a liar? Wanna fight about it?
It was before everything was a controlled choice.
