    A friend's dad is the archetypal boomer. Started a small sports equipment store in the 70s, got bought out in the 80s for an outlandish sum of money, lived off of investment income until very recently. Constantly jumping into our conversations to berate us for being slackers for not working full-time while in high school, kicked my buddy out on his 18th birthday (he was fine, had money in something similar to but not actually a trust fund), divorced his wife to date much younger women, owned a boat that he rarely used, etc. Well, around 2015 he decides that he's not going to be able to buy a new car every two years if he doesn't do something, so he opens another small business. After all, he's a business genius, and he's done it before!

    He ate total shit, wiped through all his savings in less than a year, and now has to work for a living (sort of, he's a car salesman). :stalin-feels-good:
