Comment on Life was better in the nineties and noughties, say most Britons

When asked to think about their own lives, Britons are most likely to say that the best years of their life so far have been their twenties. Three in ten Britons aged 20 and older (30%) nominate that decade as their best, a figure which is largely consistent however old they are.
While the 90s was a bit of geopolitical stability, these findings seem to be more influenced by people enjoying the freedom of their youth

Someone said that the ‘90s were probably the best time to be a young adult in the US (with obvious exceptions of course), and having become one after 9/11–I got my first degree literally ten days after that—I am inclined to agree.
