    I know that. You know that. But the notion that you have to sacrifice luxuries in order to afford other things is lost on them. This generation sees luxuries as basic human rights. They are, to put it simply, spoilt rotten.

    Right. Giving up our smart phones before they were invented was an amazing sacrifice. wd us.

    But seriously, the cost of housing is out of control, and blaming millenials for being whiny doesn't really cover it imo. The stamp duty thing is a good tax cut.

    And making rail travel cheaper for them encourages them to get a place further out of town. And where I work we do discounts to U30s as they have less disposable income.

    See my calculation below. My first how cost me the equivalent of £1,400 a month. I struggled to afford it whilst these poor babies moan and bitch and breakfast on avocado on toast.

    15% interest rates. Imagine that. I'd basically have to stop eating altogether.
