Yeah cause they witnessed the shitstorm that was the 08 financial crisis

But seriously I think it's just changing of perspective as you move up the financial ladder. I graduated from undergrad during the 08 crisis - a few years later I dropped $27k on a used Lexus IS and thought it was an insane purchase. Now, 14 years later, I'm spending nearly SEVEN TIMES that on the 2 cars I have on order and consider it within my means. If you had told me 14 years ago I'd be spending this much on cars I'd think you were on drugs and then I'd probably ask you for some.
