Generation Y: Expectations v. Reality

Lucy is part of Generation Y, the generation born between the late 1970s and the mid 1990s. She's also part of a yuppie culture that makes up a large portion of Gen Y. She grew up in a time of prosperity, which now in adulthood, has left her with high expectations that don't alway match reality. This, in turn, leaves her unhappy. Her mindset is vastly different from those of her parents who were part of the Baby Boomer generation. Their expectations matched their reality, and when economic prosperity occurred, their success exceeded their expectations.
