I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again. Over 12,000 people starve to death on this planet daily. I'm not going to be salty that a generation of people were marginally more lucky than I am.
We can do/think about two things at once...?
Also, probably closer to 25k

Sure I can think about the boomers having more, and having an easier time than me. I can dwell on it and make myself miserable. Or I can be thankful for what I have.
That doesn't mean I'm against improving my life, but there's always going to be people that had/have it better.

Baby boomers are an annoying and narcissistic generation
