RE: The Things We've Seen!

I recently heard an economist discussing how times had changed by analyzing how long it would take soneone in France to save up to the median wealth level. I may have the stats and methodology off, but it would take something like 35 years, saving 10% of income, about 50 years ago, but that has doubled to 70 years for the same savings goal now. Similar problems have arisen everywhere else, with the same trend even if differing in degree of severity. Whatever the numbers were, it's a real sign of the struggle for millennials and zoomers.
