It feels like the 35–44 age group is a truly unfortunate generation

‌
There is a strong sense that this generation is caught in the middle.
Yesterday on Femco, users from this age group were extremely upset by a post regarding this topic.
They are a generation that experienced it all during their school days and military service, from physical abuse to strict, outdated discipline.
Unlike the current youth generation, they don't receive any various welfare benefits,
yet they find employment and buying a home even harder than the 50s and 60s generation, and the National Pension is scheduled to be slashed starting right from their age group.
It really seems like they are the "unfortunate king" generation..
The generation directly above me is this group,
and they certainly seem to be the generation with the most awkward amount of savings relative to their age.
