One encounter that influenced my perspective of the world was being a female military brat. It allowed me to explore the different diversities among other people in a variety of states.

The Next Generation of Spoiled Brats Many of you know about how the older generations always thought down on the ever so famous Generation Y, or more widely known as Millennials. Most Millennials are well into their 30’s now.

The article I chose discusses how in today’s society the things that are most important to people are material items such as what they buy and have.
