oh well if the ones you know are creating their own companies and "using social media to their advantage" then I guess that all the Americans born between 1980 and 1990 must be doing the same. I'm guessing you know hundreds of millennials... or even thousands... to have been confident applying that to the entire group? And yet even still it's a broad and completely incorrect and irrelevant assumption.

As a millennial myself, I know millennials who are making money and those who are struggling, I myself am successful and make money and am also swimming in student loan debt. I choose to spend a lot of money on theater but most of my friends do not.

Also "using social media to their advantage" is such a bizarre thing to say to explain why they should be able and willing to afford pricey tickets to a Spongebob musical. Are you trying to claim all the (seemingly many but probably, in reality, few) millennials you know are so popular on social media that they've monetized it or turned it into lucrative career opportunities?

Sorry, maybe I'm overreacting, but I can't even begin to tell you how ignorant your statement is about my generation, despite what you think you know about the ones you know.

Also, P.S., one doesn't need to be rich or have a lot of disposable income to "invest in bitcoin." I certainly doubt the ones you know are choosing to buy bitcoin now while it's $18k or more per coin... my friend "invested" in it when it was a fraction of that cost, does that mean they had to have disposable income to do so? I spent a few hundred investing in litecoin, maybe that means I could spend a few hundred on anything I want every week, or it means the bit of extra money I had went there cause it was a potentially good investment, or it means I had no extra money but didn't want to miss out on the potential profit if it gets big and so I spent money I couldn't afford to buy it. You could know that I, a millennial, invest in crypto currency and that still could mean any number of things about my financial situation.
