About This Quiz

Life is filled with daily challenges that make us uncomfortable. However, for the majority of us, not being able to afford avocado toast and lattes is a bigger danger than not being able to afford clean water and food. 

Compared to people who lived in other eras, we don't have it so bad. Our prehistoric ancestors had to constantly live a nomadic lifestyle in order to chase herds of animals for food. In the medieval ages, there were no Ubers, iPhones or Skip the Dishes. For many of our parents, even computers are a relatively recent technology. 

Gen Z gets a bad reputation for being self-centered, having a small attention span and being allergic to hard work. However, that's not entirely fair. Student debt and cost of living have risen disproportionately to the average salary, which had made becoming a homeowner or financially free more difficult than in our parent's generation. 

We believe Gen Z is the technologically savvy, entrepreneurial and self-reliant generation. We're going to give you 30 hypotheticals, and we bet we can guess where you're from by your reaction.
