I guess the older Gen X could have been part of that. The younger ones were still finishing up college and just starting their careers when the economy crashed for the first, but not last time in their lives. The youngest ones joined the workforce just after the dot com bust.
GenX didn’t have much disposable income in 99, but you didn’t need much to have fun.
In 99 people were throwing cash around like crazy, it was a wild time (before the dotcom crash)
