Edit: Disregard the below because I can't do math. But leaving it for context given the response.

Boomers by definition are going to be in their late 70's at the absolute youngest.

You're talking about their children, who have comparatively little (and is coincidentally why a lot of people hate the Boomer generation).



Baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964. They're currently between 56-76 years old (roughly 76 million in U.S.). Anything older than that is the “silent generation“ (born 1928 to 1945).

Apparently date math is hard. You're 100% right.
