    As a Zennial (the microgeneration between Millennials and Gen Z), I already skip meals and ditch my belongings in a frequent basis. It’s far from “getting by”, though: it’s just so I hopefully get to finally retire from my daily, boring job as a “biological vessel operator/manager” sooner 😄

      The NYT article that the one above alludes to also suggests Gen Z has generally very high savings rates, which of course makes it more likely for people to have to dip into these savings if there’s no financial buffer.
