BOOMER: Soon you all can move out of mom’s basement…..

VD: We’ll have to move out. Mom reverse-mortgaged the house and will die engulfed in debt, so there’s nothing to inherit and nowhere to live.

BOOMER: Go earn your own house, like everyone I know. I inherited nothing.

VD: The Boomers inherited more, and will leave less behind them as a percentage of what they inherited, than any generation in memory. You’re a historically wicked generation.

BOOMER: Boohooo Mommy didn’t leave me anything. You sound childish, I wouldn’t have left you anything either.

VD: I know you wouldn’t have. You’re not a good man. A good man leaves an inheritance to his children and to his children’s children.

Even their rhetoric is nothing but self-owns.
