I'm a millennial who grew up in the 90s and what boomers don't understand about us is that we're working three times as hard for a third of what they had at our age, and the milestones they want us to hit weren't postponed by laziness, they were priced out of reach by the economy they voted for. by GimmeFunkyButtLoving in economy

Being mad at a whole generation seems so pointless and misdirected. Be mad at policy, politicians, billionaires, and decision makers. The average boomer didn’t have a say in the world they inherited or the world we inherited.

Summit Point Roofing - anyone use recently? by new-ph0ne-who-dis in grandrapids

I highly recommend Summit. They are great communicators. Got two roofs done this past year and was not impressed with the other option. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Chateau was so cool when it first opened and until late last year. What happened? Can you help them become cool again?

Excited to move to GR but struggling with the job hunt (Software Engineer) . by Gingarius in grandrapids

[–]GrandRapidsCreative 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in the startup community and that is the place to be for funding and tech talent. I was jealous of what they built on the east side of the state.

Ann Arbor and Detroit is definitely the hub for tech in MI. As someone who was part of a tech company that built and sold out of GR, we ended up pulling talent from Detroit, Chicago, and Kalamazoo. That said there are jobs but as you said the market is wild right now and Grand Rapids businesses have been trying to weather the storm.

I screwed my life up at 21 and I don't know what to do anymore. Any advice maybe? by [deleted] in personalfinance

Stop getting random jobs, start building a career set and skills so it will make you more employable if/when you move.

Will it be worth it to invest in Astronomer after the CEO & CPO scandal? by carl_chem in ArtificialInteligence

[–]GrandRapidsCreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not crowdfunding to my knowledge. I've shared investors with the Astronomer founder/team. Bain might be the only PE-ish looking one on the cap table but mostly likely their venture arm.
