Sometimes I feel like the economy never recovered from the 2008 financial crisis. I got gut punched into the adulthood by the financial crisis and at that time there was a lot of talk about the japanese lost decade. My first thought back then was "so this is going to be our lost decade huh". I'm good now but I can't say I had a lot of fun in my 20s.
