Millennials Are Doomed!

Enjoy. Have a tasty processed burger while you watch this 18 minute video on why you will die sooner than the previous generations.

One good thing, around a third of gen Z is already dead. Most of them killed at the request of their own mother.

Doom and gloom baloney. Our sons and family are well and doing well.

The millennial generation: A demographic bridge to America's diverse future | Brookings

The millennial generation, over 75 million strong is America’s largest—eclipsing the current size of the postwar baby boom generation. Millennials make up nearly a quarter of the total U.S. population, 30 percent of the voting age population, and almost two-fifths of the working age population...

That does not mean they will die later than their parents.

Given the "greatest" generation was trying to kill "boomers" off in wholesale lots with their pollution of the era, we are holding up pretty darn well.

We are a country teetering between capitalism and socialism.

Huh, just saw in the local paper where two people born in '70 and '72 passed.

While average lifespans are an interesting topic, they bear no relationship to real life. YOUR lifespan will be determined by (1) genetics, (2) extraordinary events (e.g., an auto accident, deadly disease, or getting shot), and (3) how well you take care of yourself. If the average lifespan for people born in your year is fifty or a hundred, who cares? It makes no difference to you. Statistically, having been born in 1949, I am most likely dead.

But I believe that I am an example of (3) above. I was diagnosed with a serious heart issue at 23, but I took it seriously and am now a healthy 76. I could die on my bike tomorrow and still beat the odds, unlike my mother and half her family who died between 35-55.

As for the generations following us Boomers, their prospects should be significantly better, mainly due to advances in pharmacology. But you still have to consider #3 above.

Um... a summary or anything?

LOL tick tick tick - I like that but I got a darn doctor's appt as my wife made it. Last time they asked why'd I'd come, same reason. Genetics is a tough topic thankfully I picked healthy parents and genes. Best of luck alla youse, hope you enjoy life as I do - we do.

PS for those who served they sure gave us a bunch of shots if you were going overseas.

And that has what exactly to do with the thread?

If you make it past the dangerous years, you're likely to reach a ripe old age.

I have consistently made the argument that, although life expectancy itself may be longer, the oldest person on earth today is younger than the oldest person on earth two decades ago and, prior to that, the same applies. While life expectancy increased, longetivity declined.

Quite honestly, the number one determinant of your maximum life expectancy is not genetics, it is not environment, it is not diet, it is birth order and age of mother at birth. Oldest son born when your Mom was 20, you are multiple times more likely to make it to a 100 than the youngest son born to a mother of 35.

Boomers took the pill and aborted a good share of Gen X.

Gen X isn't even going to get a president. Vance is a millennial. Now the Dems are trying to kill him too.

25 to 34 are the best ages for offspring health and longevity.

Taking in the ever increasing "Doom & Gloom" STRESS factor about debt & inflation the upcoming generation should be dying off just about the time they graduate from elementry school.

Everyone in my family has died prematurely. My uncles and Father died early from chain-smoking unfiltered Camels and Pall Malls from their days in the Army from WW II. They could have added who knows how many years to their lives if they hadn't smoked heavily; they might have lived to an average of 96 instead of 94.

Pretty lame that you didn’t provide a summary
