Description
Welcome to the Sip Salon where we gather to learn together through articles and discussion. No experts, just curious folks coming together to discuss topics. Whether you know a little or a lot, we hope to grow together in our understandings. With drinks.
What does it really cost to “make it” in America today?
From homeownership and higher education to childcare and retirement, the traditional milestones of adulthood are carrying record-high price tags. At the same time, each generation seems to be navigating a different economic reality — shaped by wages, housing markets, debt, and shifting expectations.
In this Sip Salon, we’ll explore what the data says about the rising cost of the so-called American Dream and how financial pressures compare across generations. Is life actually harder now — or just different? How have our definitions of success changed? And if the old milestones feel increasingly out of reach, what should replace them?
As always, Sip Salon is discussion-based and welcoming — no experts, just curious people gathering over a drink to unpack timely ideas together.
Come ready to think, reflect, and share your perspective.
*Note - we will meet in the Trade Room of the Junto hotel (just to the right as you enter). Street parking in the area is also free on Sundays.
