I\u2019m not gonna have to share all six pages with you.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, I have a story here, folks, that I was actually gonna save until tomorrow because I\u2019m not gonna have time to get into this in detail. &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/nypost.com\/2017\/08\/05\/generation-x-needs-to-save-america-from-millennials\/\">Generation X Needs to Save America From Millennials.<\/a>&#8221; It\u2019s a fascinatingly interesting piece to me. But I\u2019m gonna need more time than I have in this remaining half hour to do it justice, and there\u2019s a companion story here, and you people are gonna have tell me if it\u2019s right, \u2019cause I don\u2019t have children, kids. So this is Greek to me.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-242949\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/650-080217-Millenials.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/650-080217-Millenials.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/650-080217-Millenials-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>&#8220;Before your son or daughter starts using a credit card,&#8221; this in the New York Post, by the way, &#8220;make sure he or she understands that a credit card could be a weapon of self-destruction. That\u2019s because a new survey found that &#8216;Millennials\u2019 knowledge of credit cards is lacking\u2019 and &#8216;very concerning.\u2019 A few Millennials &#8212; people born in the last decades of the 20th century &#8212; actually believe that missing a card payment would &#8216;improve\u2019 their credit rating, the survey said.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, how the hell does that happen? Who in the world would be telling people, &#8220;Oh, yeah, you want to improve your credit rating? Miss a payment or two! And then make sure you make it up and it will show that you are able to&#8230;&#8221; Is that how this works? Miss a payment or two and then make \u2019em up later to show that&#8230;? &#8220;&#8216;It was only 6%, but it actually shocked us,\u2019 said <a href=\"https:\/\/lendedu.com\/blog\/millennials-credit-cards-survey-report\/\">Mike Brown, a research analyst with LendEDU<\/a> and the author of its Millennials &amp; Credit Cards Survey. &#8216;They might think that by missing a payment they are gaming the system,\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Seventeen percent said missing a card payment would have no effect on their score.&#8221; Now, these Millennials, I mean, they\u2019re the smartest group around! I mean, these are the tech generation people. These are the super advanced. You know, it just goes to show. If that\u2019s the case, Millennials can be up to 34 years old, folks. Basically, 18 to 20 to 34, 35, is the Millennial generation. Some of them think missing a credit card payment is a good thing? Some of them probably think that having your data stolen\u2019s a good thing! I wonder how many of \u2019em. This is mind-boggling to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH:  They&#039;re the generation ahead of Millennials and now they&#039;re about to lose everything to Millennials.
