Housing prices that make ownership a pipedream, lowering real wages, rising cost of living- have a look at birth rates. The younger generation are having to choose not to be parents in order make enough for any xemblance of a descent life.
But rising house prices mean boomer home equity is higher than ever. I agree, its hard for the younger generation to get on the housing ladder, that's why we will have to downsize and free some cash to provide a deposit. We need less as we get older anyway.
