Tony Sinclair had worked all his life – but still found himself sleeping rough. Then even his tent was taken away from him.

In a way, 70-year-old Tony Sinclair was lucky to be in his tent on the day last year when the police arrived. The canvas that kept him from the elements ended up in the bin, but, unlike several of his neighbours, he was able to save his most important possessions from going the same way.

        About 20-30% of boomer got retirement money.

        However, most of the money is locked up by top 1-3% which is mostly boomer and up.

          Here’s a really good analysis of how it’s not true the Boomers have all the money - there are lots of very comfortable Millennials too. It’s more complicated than people like to think

            Anywya, I do my own analysis based on data released by the federal reserve along with bls reports for income distributions. Not some shiti twatter shit post.

            there are lots of very comfortable Millennials

            Nobody said there werent affluent millenials, who mostly who come from rich families lol

            Also “lots” modifier has no meaning without data.
