It Sucks to Be 33

Jeanna Smialek, who covers the U.S. economy for The Times, will be 33 in a few weeks; she is part of a cohort born in 1990 and 1991 that makes up the peak of America’s population. At every life stage, that microgeneration has stretched a system that was often too small to accommodate it, leaving its members — so-called peak millennials — with outsize economic power but also a fight to get ahead. Guest: [Jeanna Smialek] (https://www.nytimes.com/by/jeanna-smialek) , a U.S. economy correspondent for The New York Times. Background reading:  ---When millennials gripe that they get blamed for everything, the accusers [ might actually be onto something] (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/02/business/economy/33-year-olds-millennials.html) . ---Millennials have the children, [ but boomers have the houses] (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/01/realestate/empty-nests-millennials-boomers.html) .
