I compare late Gen X me to my sedentary, early Boomer parents and it's a difference in what is valued more - experiences or stuff. I think the younger generations are even more focused on (instagrammable) experiences as a status symbol rather than having a nicer Buick than the neighbor.

"My dad is a dick and he is a national team legend. Clearly that's how I should be too."

Remember when almost all of our players were Bobby Warshaw types? I think they succeeded in lower-tier Euro countries just by virtue of not being morons.
