I agree with everything you said except, im confused about the use of the term lost generation. That’s a generation born in the 1880-1900s.

My mistake if so. I was under the impression that term was used for those of us born between 1978 or so thru 1983.

In any case, I don’t see myself in the same vein as GenX nor Millennial, at least stereotypically.

I had an feeling you actually meant GenX but I just wanted to make sure. I know that GenX is often thought of as the latchkey generation. I’m on the edge of GenX/millennial.

I just see myself as apart of the “ boomerang “ generation where I’ll be worse off than my parents. Fun times.
