They Thought They Hit a Triple...

They think they hit a triple, but they were actually born on third base. 🏃♂️💨 In this clip of our generational breakdown on Sober Psychology, we're exposing the ultimate macroeconomic delusion. Let's look at the data: buying a four-bedroom house on a basic salesman’s salary back in 1974 wasn't an act of superhero work ethic—it was a product of an incredibly unique, favorable environment. When your parents look at the modern economic brick wall you're facing and call it a "character flaw," they're protecting their own ego.
