Born in ’89 – Seen Success, but 2020–2025 Has Been a Wild Ride
Born in 1989, I’ve seen and felt success. But damn… 2020 to 2025 has been an absolute disaster—and I know I’m not the only Millennial who feels this way.
Everything I’ve worked for or believed in seems to have hit a wall. Meanwhile, the polar opposite seems true for others. Gen Z is blowing up through social media, Gen Y folks happened to land in the right place at the right time, and Older generations cashing in on investments made back when the economy wasn’t forcing us to turn quarters into $5.
It feels like the world flipped upside down. I know a lot of Millennials feel the same way—like we were promised something that never quite showed up.
Call me crazy, but I see the POTUS tariffs as a massive wake-up call—especially for people in government jobs, teachers, or even “successful” entrepreneurial types who’ve climbed their way up (and some who scammed their way there).
We’re about to see a commercial real estate explosion as countries hit by tariffs pull back. Meanwhile, housing and rent prices might finally normalize. That shift is going to open the door to companies that desperately need U.S.-based employees, which could spark a massive economic boom in general labor.
Companies like Toyota and Nike are going to have to set up shop here—think sweatshops, yeah—but with higher wages because immigration is being moderated and there’s now high demand for hands-on labor. Trades and professional fields like construction are going to thrive, especially because many of the small businesses Millennials have been building employees through skill and through trial and error. These entrepreneurs will start to see triple or quadruple in selling services like AC repair, Plumbing, Electrical in value. Immigrants have been seizing entry construction while Gen Z have been opting out. What a time to be alive.
And if you’re someone reading this and disagreeing with every word, ask yourself honestly:
Were you ever really qualified to be making the money you were making?
The car repo crash is coming. The used car market is about to surge and might finally destroy the inflated new car market. I, for one, can’t wait to see it all reset. A Toyota Tundra should be $35,000 new fully loaded and not $85,000 especially coming from a Chinese company. People say Potus doesnt want to tax the rich but is this not the best way to tax the rich.
Drain the swamp, baby.
God bless, stay strong, this is New America—HooRah!
