I volunteer at a charity op shop and every now and then, boomers use us as a pseudo-cleaning service. The shop has a pickup service, so if somebody isn't able to drop off donations themselves (i.e. can't make it to the shop or what they're donating is too heavy like furniture or white goods), they can come by and pick it up for you. You have to negotiate with the shop manager first, though. One old lady had tons upon tons of black plastic bags filled with junk and old clothing which probably hasn't been worn in several decades, and she decides she wants to 'donate' the whole lot to us. Of course, she can't drop it off herself, so she expects us to drop by and pick it up for her. She not only did this once, but twice. The manager of the shop told her no the second time around and she got mad. Then he told her that we're a charity, not a cleaning service.

Another time, I went to help with moving some donations, and it was some old house where the steps were stupidly tall and they wanted to donate this massive, hardwood table they had in the living room. The screws on the table were burred (which meant you couldn't unscrew them) and they were also rusty just as an extra fuck you. There was no way in hell we were going to move this table out of their living room in one piece. They were nice enough, but this wasn't a job for a group of volunteers. They should have paid for some professional movers. In the end, we told them that we wouldn't be able to remove it and they should just leave it behind for the new homeowners.

That massive hardwood cabinet or table is a nice display piece inside your tiny living room, but when you're a fossilized 80 year old and you need to get rid of it, what then? What's the value of it? They also clearly weren't donating it to us to be charitable, but just so they didn't have to pay someone to do it for them.

Being a voracious consumer in post-war America was a symbol of status and wealth even if all you managed to do was pack your home full of worthless junk. I think some of them do genuinely believe their hoards have great value but as you say others just want a free cleaning service. They're either too broke to pay for it or do have the money but are insulted they might have to part with a single shekel to pay for someone else's labor.

To be fair I have previously mentioned trying to interact with registered charities to haul away some fairly nice, clean and well cared for modern furniture but found their prices way too high. I'm not paying you $75 to $100 to carry a single chest of drawers out and put it on a truck. Maybe I'm actually the Boomer here. It's also a problem because there's millions of homes filled with products that are of no use to younger generations. A 25-30 year old has no need for a 400 pound china hutch much less what's inside of it.

Why do boomers seem to universally believe the lie that the money they put into social security was put into some account and is just sitting around ready to be given back?

Did they all read the same book or something?

I think they see it as a sort of tax. You pay taxes, a portion of those taxes go towards maintaining a public service, therefor you have rights to access that public service like being able to go to your local park.
 

There is a growing trend of threats, lawsuits and even enforcement of filial laws that require people to pay their parents debts. These laws were actually rarely enforced until the Boomer generation started getting old.

I don't know. I have a feeling that if we keep the boarder closed once we start seeing the boomers really start to die in the next decade you are going to get a massive housing crash which will hopefully re-balance the economy. Importing more population will keep the housing prices high though...

This is not how it works. Most cities, especially suburbs, are dependent on property taxes. The only way they can increase their budgets is by raising property taxes but if they raise rates, people will throw a shitfit. Therefore the solution is to keep raising housing values. We saw this during the 2008 subprime crisis where several cities went bankrupt and numerous others came very close. Many other home owners will shit their pants if the house next door drops $200k in value while they have to eat shit on their overpriced mortgages.

The future solution is the ridiculous idea of 50 year mortgages. The asset bubble has to keep expanding because a big chunk of the FIRE economy requires assets continually going up in value and all the various fees and taxes that get charged along with it. Maybe something has to give eventually but it’s not in the near future.

It's a combination of cognitive decline and their lack of tech skills. Low IQ people generally also seem to be easily tricked by AI but I don't believe a lot of boomers are originally low IQ, I think they're in cognitive decline as a cohort.

You would be surprised the number of people tricked by AI videos as they get better and better and also have human editing over the top. They don't notice details that seem odd to us or question whether something is realistic. There's also many people who either due to old age or because they only use touch screens and don't truly understand how different programs and tech can be used, don't think through what they're presented with.

Thinking a dead person is talking to you seems schizo tier though. That goes beyond being tricked by AI.

I’ve known boomers who did everything with DOS prompts who struggle these days because once they get used to smartphones and AI, they pretty much forget any semblance of computer literacy. Zoomers never had the computer literacy to begin with. It doesn’t take long to forget these things, especially in old age.

Its hilarious, especially when coming across retarded journalwhore content or when having the misfortune hearing polity-scum talk, not to even start with the average 20th century media brainwashed 50+ piece of shit; they always talk about "tax-payer" monies, as if a single dime of the cashflow extorted through loyalist cuck employers, "vat" extortion or any other tax cashflow in the now, is paying for anything but the interests and yields of public trash bonds emitted over the past 30 years. They really either are too stupid to understand how a socialist marxist-keynesian FIAT pyramid scheme with a ponzi on top works, haven't realized that for the past 60 years the "economy" is a socialist ponzi that works according to the assumption of infinite growth in the future that can be leveraged now (the past) at the cost of somebody else in the future, or they are simply disingenuous scammers, who deserve, without an exception to be expropriated, have all legislated "entitlements" canceled and to be frankly put in front of a wall and be shot as they already consumed their life.

Scare tactics on gullible "good" people, as it worked on that lady. Don't fall for shit like this, even if it's from the gov't.
 
Ok, but who the fuck is going to buy this?

2 acres? You can’t even legally hunt on it or farm on it. The 2 acres isn’t even wooded it’s legit just grass with a few stunted trees by a creek.

95% of boomers are going to stay where they are. Normie Booms/Boomer Libs have already found their dream McMansion/Town House and MAGABoomers already have their 30 acre anti Nigger Shed in the country they bought in 2020/2021 for a million dollars.

The correction in the housing market is being staved off by boomers being stubborn as fuck lmao

They don't seem to realize in most areas the prices aren't going to continue to go up up up.

Their attitude towards everything is that they can profit off it big time later. Somehow. Someway. It's legit insanity.

Boomers have been seething on twitter at the mere suggestion that they pay higher property taxes and/or receive less in social security. Some are literally threatening to rise up

>I worked 70 hours a week for the past 44 years.

Press X to doubt.

If he was a clone of Arnold Schwarzenegger that might be believable for the first 25 years.

boomers are so FAT and dress like RETARDS.
They all are gigantic obese pieces of SHIT. They dress in cargo shorts and band shirts and wear their stupid FUCKING CROCS.

I was watching Unwrapped, a food network show from like 1999-2005. Sometimes they go to diners populated with the old people of the time: silent gen and ww2 gen.
They're all skinny and dress nicely. The women are wearing nice blouses, dresses, have their hair done. The men are wearing collared shirts tucked in, slacks, ties sometimes, their hair is groomed.
Even the oldest most feeble ones are dressed like they give a fuck.

Boomers are so fucking putrid in that they don't fucking care. The women wear leggings and t shirts, the men wear wifebeaters and cargo shorts. and they all wear CROCS.
They're FAT, poorly dressed, unkempt fucking stray dogs of a generation.

I feel like the Social Security question is the breakfast question of Boomers. They genuinely believe that social security is a savings account and that they are just getting their money back.

They also react very strongly to people telling them they're wrong or don't let them get their way. It creates some sort of narcissistic wound. They legit get aggressive with you. It's why so many of them have issues with service workers.

I legit don't get them considering it a sort of "savings account" because WTF if that's how you saw it why didn't you just have your own savings????
 
Thank you for modern medicine ensuring boomers will live long enough to see the consequences of their actions and that many will live long enough to see their all their free shit cut.
