The Zillenials And That Bank Of America Study -- November 20, 2020

Re-posting:

That BofA study on "Zillenials" reported on ZeroHedge never re-appeared. It's not often I catch a story posted on ZeroHedge that gets pulled almost immediately after being posted. BofA must not have been happy with their study being posted to a wider audience.  

I had hoped it would reappear. The BofA contained a huge flaw. It was not a BofA flaw but it needed to be addressed. See this PewSocialTrends link. 

The generally-accepted (?) date for Generation Z: born after 1996. 

In 2020:

• 2014: 6 years old
• 2006: 14 years old
• 2003: 17 years old
• 1996: 24 years old

There's no way I put Sophia, six years of age, in the same "generation" as her old sisters, age 14 and 17, and I definitely don't put Olivia, age 14, in the same generation at those now 24 years of age. I'm not sure the two other sisters, age 14 and 17, are even in the same generation. Most likely they are, but I'm not sure.

When Arianna is 24 years old, seven years from now, Sophia will still be at home, in middle school. One might be starting a family, certainly starting a career. The other? looking forward to another great summer boating on Flathead Lake. 

What happened to the iGeneration? The iGeneration, apparently, is the ill-named zGeneration. Link here.

More on this later. Sophia is coming over for school.
