What are the chances that Generation Z will become more successful than Millennials?
>millennials
Spoiled boomer-spawn who were taught to follow their dreams because life is easy. Instead they wound up failing at life and completely lack accountability for their lack of success. When you ask a millennial why they're unemployed and live with their parents, the typical response is something along the lines of "capitalism", "the patriarchy", "the white race", or "my parents".
>gen z
Kids and teens who grew up poor and houseless during the recession and were taught that life is shit unless you work hard and be strategic.
>Muh millenials maymay
Protip, it's the Millennials who were the ones fucked over by the Recession.

Most millennials didn't even own houses during the subprime mortgage crisis. You were off in college bitching about Iraq or some other nonsense while you faced a temporary setback in employment and salary. Generation X lost an investment they spent a huge fraction of their lives building. How exactly have millennials gotten fucked over? A year or two of working retail or mooching off your parents? Pathetic.

they don't stand a chance. they're more brainwashed than millennials but are equally fucked by economics

gen x lost an investment if they invested like utter idiots. they had time to learn the rules of the game. if they invested at the top, they deserved to lose their money. if htey didn't HOLD at teh bottom, they deserved to lose it even more.
millennials are still working for pocket change even though prices are even higher than 08.

You sound like somebody who has no clue what caused the housing crisis in 2008. Nobody except a few people knew that the banks were filling CDOs with low-rated bonds. It isn't gen x's fault at all for their home losses.

>it's not gen x's fault for being uneducated
uh....
look man, entire COUNTRIES were issuing statements about the state of american derivatives and the housing market. japan and germany explicitly enacted policy to make housing CHEAPER so that it couldn't lead to what happened.
it was PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE that glass steagall was gone, and that frank dodd was loaning to people who couldn't pay back. the information is available in QUARTERLY REPORTS and these sorts of deals had been explictly REJECTED by other developed countries.
by 08 EVERYONE had access to the internet, so they can't blame suze orman or rich dad poor dad or whatever filth gets peddled.
gen x was sold a flse bill of goods. like idiots, they took the candy. it's not anyone else's fault they put all their eggs in one, very stupid basket.
they shouldn't be playing the market if they don't understand it.
you sound like one of those idiots who plays agnostic in every situation to cover his own lack of knowledge. rest assured, SOME PEOPLE CAN indeed, be capable of obtaining knowledge. this category probably excludes you, however.

Thanks. This post confirms that you're an idiot who doesn't understand finance. Thanks for saving my time.

let me guess, you deal exclusively in technicals and can't figure out why math didn't predict the collapse?
MANY people saw what was happening and had made their methodology public. no one cared then, and no one cares now.
your narrow worldview and unwillingness to read is why you think investors are helpless.
