Martha Stewart, who thinks flower arranging is a key life skill, has some advice for millennials.
The business woman and lifestyle guru who oversaw a massive price crash in her brand Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia from $2 billion in 1999 to around 1/6th of that in 2015, is worried that millennials aren’t growing tomato plants on their apartment balconies.
In an interview with Luxury Listings, Stewart says of millennials, “Now we are finding out that they are living with their parents. They don’t have the initiative to go out and find a little apartment and grow a tomato plant on the terrace. I understand the plight of younger people … The economic circumstances out there are very grim. But you have to work for it. You have to strive for it. You have to go after it …”

I hate when older generations bang on about how wrong the younger generations are doing things (even celebrities). Advice like this feels passive aggressive.
A) Your generation contributed to raising mine B) Student loan debt C) Skyrocketing rent and mortgages. I think we work very hard!
