all this reminds me of is how my gen x dad drank himself into a doomspiral that he's never recovered from because the 08 crash ruined his career and lost us the house after a string of bad home repair decisions left the roof leaking and is broke with no mortgage money.  basically at the first sign of adversary he had his entire life since the 70s, he gave up on life and quit trying to build something.  really grinds my gears too when seeing the growth rates afterwards.
