I have about 8 close friends from high school. All now in their mid 30’s

Of the 8…

6 are unmarried and have never been married.

2 are married

4 have children. 4 do not.

Of the four that have kids they each have only 1 child.

Only 2 have what could meaningfully be considered a career. The rest work paycheck to paycheck.

Only 2 are home owners.

Is this common for millennials in america? Or is this just my friend group.

Obviouly your friends are not Asian.

It's common in Europe as well. 💯 What's even worse, many men who have careers, haven't a family because the welfare state set's wrong incentives.

Millennials cover such a big age range, so I think it really depends. In my age group, most have solid careers—some are well off, some probably living paycheck to paycheck. But all own their homes and have anywhere from 1 to 4 kids 😅. It’s interesting how different friend groups can have such...

Same story for me brother Except my circle is even smaller I have 5 close friends from high school Out of the 5 I am the only home owner, I am the only one married I am the only one with multiple kids. Pretty wild thinking about it.

Norway: 8 out of 10 own their apartment/house. I would say 80% of the people I know (a few hundred) have children. https://image.nostr.build/3b3e70b61431d6cb5dadf84d0b5a4585a118139cda72983ea73d34a1be8af0f7.jpg

Representative cohort my dude.

Deleted Account · 49w

Im in my mid twenties and our friend group of people born at the end of the 90s is in that weird zone where we are between generations (when I was younger I was considered a millennial and now I’m technically a zoomer). I’d say half are going towards the unmarried non-homeowners path and the oth...

I think within that cohort, it's because having something considered a career is a calling that they just don't see, with the exception of the two you mentioned. I'm working towards that myself, so I know what it's like to a certain extent (very little).

these numbers line up with my experience it is sad, tried my best

I only have contact with three of my high school friends. If any have kids, I never heard about it. I think one got married.

No Good Kid · 49w

Pretty much the same in europe. Plus the home owners received a huge help from the family.

I only have 1 close friend from high school, both him and me are married with kids and good careers. Probably if I had held onto 8 close friends from high school it would match your experience but I just stuck with my main guy, the rest fell by the wayside. You are the company you keep in many ways.
