from The Financial Griot · host Alainta Alcin, Lawrence Delva-Gonzalez

Lawrence and Alainta discuss the evolution and financial progression of being older. Becoming true geriatric millennials who are over 30 but not quite 50. The game is definitely changing.  What's a Geriatric Millennial?Geriatric millennials are a micro-generation of people born between 1980 and 1985. The term was popularized in a viral Medium article titled "Why the Hybrid Workforce of the Future Depends on the 'Geriatric Millennial'". The term was coined by author and teamwork expert Erica Dhawan, who described geriatric millennials as those born between 1980 and 1985. Dhawan believes that being skilled in both digital and personal forms of communication enables geriatric millennials to serve in a hybrid role in the workplace.Geriatric millennials are comfortable with both analog and digital forms of communication. They were the first generation to grow up with technology like a PC in their homes. They are neither ignorant of technology nor so engrossed in it that a voicemail inspires fear. However, many in the cohort are bristling at the moniker.Here are the 25 signs that you are a Geriatric millennial. What's a Financial Griot Anyways?The Financial Griot is a play on two words (Finance + Griot) that hold significance in closing the wealth gap while embracing our differences.
