That the oldest of the Millennials are 36 years old.

In fact, some charts have them ending as early as 1995.

So if you were born between ‘95 and 2000 you could be either a Millennial or Gen Z.

I think the point I’m trying to make here is that most people talk about Millennials as if they’re all clueless teenagers when in reality they’re likely between the ages of 20-36.

Millennials are generally young adults suffering from a failing economy and a failed educational system, being portrayed as clueless children by the people who broke the economy and the educational system.

“…being portrayed as clueless children by the people who broke the economy and the educational system.” 

Which is, in what is perhaps not really a surprise, exactly how the prior generation was represented by their parents, and that generation by the one before them, and so on and so forth. 

I have never seen that the grouping for Gen X lumps me in with my older siblings. My oldest sister and myself are bookends of the spread.
