I thought this chart was missing something, so I did my best to implement it here in picrel.
I basically took the median of each age group, and used it to trace a line that shows how old on average each person from that "generation" would be.

With that, we have for example :
At age 50, the silent generation has around 80 trillions wealth.
At age 50, the boomers will have had around 50 trillion.
At age 50, the gen Xers look to be holding around 25 trillion.
At age 50, it's looking grim millenial bros..

At age 30, the boomers held around 20 trillions worth of assets.
At age 30, the genXers were holding around 10 trillions, pre-2008 crash.
At age 30, the millenial will probably have never kissed a woman.

It's interesting to see how the inflation combined with greed of each previous generation slowly deprives the one coming after it, but it's also scary that us millenials have flatlined for 30 years, as opposed to other growing generations that usually have doubled their assets at the expense of the silent generation.
It also might just mean they're all just inheriting wealth, except it's worth less than what it's been when the previous generation held it.
