spent the weekend with my granddad, he is 85 now and got married at 25

he started the family in a poor, socialist country, in a depth of the cold war, with no real career prospects or financial security

average 25 year old men these days are 10x better off and don’t even consider starting families

feels backwards 

Curious: what does he think about communism?

weird, I'm constantly told by Americans that communism is good just hasn't been done right. Yet, anyone I ask who has lived through it seems to not like it. I'm sure they are wrong, though.

Perhaps you have a small sample. My mother and her parents, for example, believe that they lived much better in the USSR. And there are quite a lot of such people. The products variety was lower than now, but there was a guaranteed job after free education and a free apartment for your family after a few years of work.
