There are reports that younger generations, such as Gen Z and millennials, are facing financial difficulties and are being priced out of certain things that older generations, like boomers and Gen X, could afford. The housing market appears to be a particular challenge, with some older generations choosing not to sell their homes, potentially limiting options for younger buyers. The financial situation of Gen Z and millennials is described as a paradox, with some indications that they are spending less but still expecting more, while others suggest that their adulting dreams are being crushed due to financial constraints.
