Wealthsimple thank you.

Too bad we don't teach the younger generations investment and personal finance, we only teach how to get credit and loans. Debt is taught

This headline must be very confusing for the old fogeys who think millennials are still in middle school.

I was losing money with the chance to get it back, all on paper. It beats the money I burn on booze and avocado toast.

We're used to being broke, why would we panic?

Ok, can we set a hard fast guideline for what a millennial is? Cause it seems I am a millennial when it suits the headline and not when it doesn't. I was born in 1982, and if you consider that a millennial I know plenty of my peers (and me as well) who lost their shirts in 2007

1981 is the start of Millennials. We were 27 in 2008.

I generally avoided panic by being too lazy to do anything about it

Umm I had money in the stock market in 2008 too.

Millennial*

And AP reeely reeely needs a bad economy this upcoming election. That nasty old Trumpses economy is make it hard to drive them favorable down below 30%. We hates him, we does! *gollum!*

Wait until they see the bottom.
