I remember seeing ol Gerald sitting at the resolute desk resolutely signing those tortillas. Something about affixing the presidential seal on a circular tortilla in an Oval Office struck me deeply.

Millennial here. I wrote a spreadsheet that keeps track of my bills, auto-calculates child support, auto-calculates savings, and lets me know how much I would have to earn to get a mortgage. With no eating out, no subscriptions, and no renovating…

I would still have to make 68k/year to afford a 1200/month mortgage. Literally everything is way more expensive, but most companies still think 15/hr is a livable wage. It’s not millennials, it’s the economy.
