Right between the traditional baby boomers and tech-savvy millennials is the often overlooked Gen X. Known as the “Forgotten Generation,” these are the people who came of age at the height of MTV and before the digital age took over the world.
Gen Xers today are in their 40s to 60s, and many of them miss the glory days of their era.
