Anger often arrives before all the facts do, and that can make an already painful situation even worse. While emotions are completely understandable, your first goal should be to gather information instead of making accusations.

Things landlords could legally do when baby boomers were renting—that millennials would never stand for.

People love to talk about how cheap rent was when Baby Boomers were young, which is fair, because the numbers can look ridiculous today. But the part that gets skipped is the rulebook.
