      Yep, the good ones were poor and didn’t live as long as the “wealthy” (not millionaires) ones. No inheritance for me. Hope my dad doesn’t spend it all on vacations so I’ve got something to sell when he goes i guess. :p

      Not really, people of the previous generations had their kids younger and life expectancy is pretty high for our grandparents. One is my grandmothers became a grandmother at 45 or so and that cousin is a first year millennial, she’s still alive and kicking, so is my other grandmother of about the same age. Some millennials have grandparents just entering their 70s!
