  Nah anything after 1927 and you would’ve been too young to fight in WW2, you’d get the post war boom but you wouldn’t be drafted

    In Germany you would’ve been drafted and if surviving you’d have had to help rebuild a bombed-down occupied country. I certainly wouldn’t want to be born before the ~60s.

  I’d love to be born in the 30s, too young to understand the depression and the economic boom of the 50s and 60s right when I’m hitting my prime age
