Sun (nprofile…h6f2) that seems like a rare case, I don’t know of any boomers that did that unless their kids were little shitbags who deserve disinheritance.
I think the main issue is that boomers were so successful as a generation that many of them were new money who had no real idea how money works and thus they didn’t purposefully waste it, they just didn’t know how to handle wealth, which ultimately, can’t be helped.
It’s a self correction really, boomers had an abnormally high proportion of the generation being affluent, so it’s self correcting back to more natural levels.
Of course, pioneering Xers and millennials can still make money and success, and many do, but as a generation, the attitude is far, far too bitter to really do that. That’s the main issue. Also they could help their wealthy family with financial advice and planning, would make a world of difference.
