Guest rooms cost money we don't have, Andrea.

I think it's the point of the article tbh, title is tongue-in-cheek. Author is a fashion reporter for Forbes and lives in Berlin, I'm gonna guess one of those "digital nomads" who wants to live in a relatively inexpensive "world class" city while getting paid roughly a NYC wage. I wonder just how much of a contribution people like her make to housing crises in places like Berlin.

Ahhhh my b. For a second I thought "oh god, the 'millennials are killing this that and the other' trend is back" and kinda knee-jerked a little.

Lol I added a bit more context. Honestly losing my sympathy a bit when I realized it's probably a bougie kid that just wants places like Berlin to also have McMansions

"Why don't these unwashed millennials just buy more money instead of killing all our industries?"

Oh, don't be silly. Poor people don't exist. Everyone is a multimillionaire that can afford to pay 5000 for a studio. Just have mummy and daddy cover your rent if you're really that much of an underachiever.

Gen Z all snuggle together in one bed not even cause there’s nowhere else just cause we want to

But also because there is nowhere else and snuggling is cheaper than turning on the heater.

grillman: "Stupid millennials, have you ever considered just having more stuff like us boomers?"

If anything, my grandparents killed the guest room. My mom and I had to live with them for years, and after we both moved out they converted our rooms into crafting rooms. My mom and I live in different apartments, with no extra room, and they got rid of their guest rooms to have more space to craft stuff. Hardly what I'd call Millennials...
