If you are under 30 you didn’t really experience Y2K, or the 2008 recession.

What? How did we not experience the recession bro

I don’t think existing during a recession is experiencing it. I’m not saying current under 30s weren’t impacted by it but they weren’t participating in the job or housing market crashes.

Their parents inability to afford food and housing might have affected them a little bit

True and real, truly a core childhood memory for me ♥

A kid born in 92 would be 16 in 2008. So they are beginning to look at the job market in many cases.

A kid born in 1992 isn’t under 30 though…

If you're born in 94 you were 16 in 2010. I don't know how you don't experience a global economic crisis being 16 at the time (Don't know why I replied to you specifically)
