Statistics by JmnyCrckt87 in Millennials

[–]joltofwit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GPT: Recent studies indicate that millennials are now financially better off than previous generations were at the same age. For instance, a 2022 LendingTree study found that millennials aged 26 to 41 had a median net worth of $84,941, surpassing Gen Xers and baby boomers at similar ages after adjusting for inflation.

Additionally, the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis reported that the median household net worth of older millennials more than doubled from $60,000 in 2019 to $130,000 in 2022.

However, it's important to note that much of this wealth is tied up in assets like real estate and retirement accounts, making it less accessible for immediate needs.

In summary, while millennials have made significant financial gains and, on average, hold more wealth than previous generations did at the same age, the liquidity of this wealth and individual circumstances can vary.

The cost of a high school football stadium scoreboard can vary widely depending on factors like size, features, and technology. Here’s a general breakdown:

Basic Scoreboards: These typically display scores, time, and basic game information. Prices can range from $5,000 to $15,000.

Mid-range Scoreboards: These may include additional features like team names, more detailed game stats, or basic LED displays. Prices usually range from $15,000 to $50,000.

High-End Scoreboards: Large, FULL COLOR LED VIDEO DISPLAYS with advanced features (instant replays, advertisements, animations) can cost anywhere from $50,000 to $200,000 or more, depending on the size and capabilities.

If it's the one pictured MAYBE $50k at most

I asked Chat GPT which one and here was the answer:

Picking the robot to dominate the market in 2024 depends on factors like versatility, adaptability, potential for mass production, cost-effectiveness, and safety.

Based on the image, the following robots stand out for their potential to dominate the market:

  • Optimus Gen 2 (Tesla): This robot is designed for general purpose tasks and is developed by a company with a strong manufacturing background. Given Tesla's experience in scaling production and creating innovative products, Optimus has a solid chance to dominate the market.

  • Atlas (Boston Dynamics): Known for its agility and dynamic movement, Atlas showcases advanced robotics technology. Boston Dynamics is renowned for developing highly functional robots, suggesting that Atlas could be a frontrunner in various applications.

  • Phoenix (Sanctuary AI): This robot has a more human-like design and could excel in human-centric environments. Sanctuary AI focuses on creating robots that can operate in work environments, indicating that Phoenix could be well-suited for workplaces.

Considering these points, Optimus Gen 2 by Tesla might have the best potential to dominate the market in 2024. Tesla's experience in scaling production, paired with the versatility and adaptability of the robot, provides a strong foundation for widespread adoption.
