Which generation are you?
I was working through old archives, and found this fun test. It is NOT a psychometric test, nor even is it one you should take seriously. It is fairly focused on the US market. But, with all of those caveats, it’s still a bit of fun, and makes a good point about different generations.
Have fun. Which generation are you?
