Chuck Underwood studies, writes and lectures about the differences in generational outlook and behavior—the underlying thought being that in the first twenty years of one’s life, each of us forms unique core values and beliefs based on the times and its teachings.  An abrupt change in the times or the teachings creates the next generation.

Today in the United States, there are five generations living side by side:
The GI Generation, now 84 and older, who came into leadership roles in our country after WWII, and exhibited both their vision and their compassion;
The Silent Generation, now 65 - 83, best known for not rocking the boat;
The Baby Boomers, now age 46 – 64, social revolutionaries at their core, who participated in the women’s movement, the civil rights movement, the environmental movement, the anti-war movement and the sexual revolution;
Gen-X, now age 29 – 45, the children with the most difficult passage, with the least amount of adult supervision, making them into an “island” generation; and
The Millennials, up to age 28, an optimistic, nurtured, Boomer-raised group that shares its ore values with those of their parents.

During the week, Chuck will be talking about generational differences and how they affect outlook, maturation, confidence and even their buying patterns in real estate.  Listen to Chuck with new podcasts daily.
