It's the world of the Baby Boomer—the rest of us are just renting space. Baby Boomers are people who were born between 1946 and 1964.
If you were born between those years, then you're a Baby Boomer, at least by what most people say. But just because you were born into a certain generation that mean that's the one that you belong in. If you're a baby boomer, you probably think that Millennials don't work hard enough and are constantly glued to their phones. On the other hand, Millennials might look at Baby Boomers and see people who are out of touch, work too hard and don't have any idea of how to text.
Turns out, both groups have some biases that are upside down, as Boomers are most likely to be susceptible to "fake news" and Millennials had to work way harder than Boomers did to get into college.
So how do you tell whether someone is a true Baby Boomer? Well, we think we can find out just by asking a few simple questions about your life experience, how you think about things and how you deal with different situations. For example, if you remember using an ice box, had a just one single phone in your house that was connected to a wall, and remember when swearing was a really big deal, you're probably a Baby Boomer. Take this quiz and see if you're a true Baby Boomer.
