See this article:

I love this tidbit:

Quote:
an owner of the Urban Rustic Market and Cafe on North 12th Street, said he had seen a steady number of applicants, in their late 20s, who had never held paid jobs: They were interns at a modeling agency, for example, or worked at a college radio station. In some cases, applicants have stormed out of the market after hearing the job requirements.

“They say, ‘You want me to work eight hours?’ ” Mr. Illades said. “There is a bubble bursting.”


I can't imagine being in my late 20s, having never worked a real job before. It must be a really charmed life.

There are fewer trust fund babies, other than BU students, holding up Boston's real estate.

I dunno, I've seen my share, though they've usually gotten inheritances rather than trust funds proper.
