I'm wondering is there something wrong with millenials? I hear younger generation trash it on PS4

Homelanders hah. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/artificial-maturity/201402/homelanders-the-next-generation

GENERATION Y (1984-2002)

1. Adventurous
2. Green friendly, but self-indulged
3. Secure; high self-esteem
4. Easy come, easy go
5. Poor at finances
6. Dependant upon parents/adults
7. Optimistic and progressive
8. Cause-oriented
9. I want it all
10. Naïve

HOMELANDERS (2003-2021)

1. Cautious and safety preoccupied
2. Green-biased; focus on conservation
3. Insecure; seeking identity
4. Calculated
5. Frugal stewards of resources
6. Self-reliant
7. Realistic and pragmatic
8. Issue-oriented
9. I seek balance; trade-offs
10. Globally savvy and aware

I guess they are bit better. 

I love how the defaults of Gen Y (poor at finances, dependent upon parents, naive and want it all) are a direct consequence of the economy destroyed by the previous generations, and Gen Y just trying to have the same goals as Gen X and babyboomers. Yep, Gen Y is naive if we think we can live as easily as them. Even "easy come, easy go" is an usual criticism from 60 years olds who spent their entire life in one job only, and don't understand why youngsters change jobs regularly.

Love the description of kids younger than 15 too. Seeking identity and self-reliant... They're teenagers, no need to think further. We'll see how they manage once on the job market.

Every generation have issues, but yes I don't like millenials and younger.

Ahh and here I thought we could get along. Anyway this will be a reocurring pattern. In 10 years millenials will probably complaint about Gen Y/Z.

Millenials is just another name for Gen Y though (even if some people can have a different definition).
