What an absurdly divisive title. As if every single boomer is buying an elevator right now specifically to spite other generations. Why not point out the more obvious demographic that is actually doing this: wealthy people. It was nothing to do with age and everything to do with how much disposable untaxed income you have lying around.
Age is absolutely relevant. Old people have trouble with stairs. Rich 30 somethings aren't buying elevators for the thrill.
I had an elevator in my 4 story townhouse when I was 26. It was however really slow so I just ended up putting a keg of beer in it. Mobile beer!
How did it work, counterweight, hydraulic ram, chain pulley, or what?
Most kegs just pressurize the beer, and use that for the extraction... But some use a hand pump mechanism, or an external CO2 tank.
Ah the ol' Lemmy switcheroo
Hold my beer, I'm goin in?
WHILE YOU ARE STRUGGLING TO MAKE RENT, BOOMERS STILL OWN HOMES!
