 New Generations' American Dream Differs
New Generations' American Dream Differs
Occassionally this finance writer for Yahoo puts out a good article. It is not very common for her, most of the time she just babbles about common sense finance issues.

Interesting. I don't necessarily agree with everything she says but that's only because not enough time has passed to see if she's correct.

My mother said in the early 90's that my generation (Cusp of Boom/Bust) will be the first that does not do better than their parents. It's true so far....
