But that stuff is cheaper now and they last longer so it's not that unusual to have one in the garage or on the back porch, it was unheard of back then.

The retirement thing that some have mentioned is a good point as well, I do believe the baby boomers are going to enjoy far better retirements than any of the subsequent generations. Just because we may be doing equal or slightly better at this point in time, it doesn't mean we are better off overall.
What the **** do you have seven TVs for?
