Today, there are well over 50 million members of Generation X. We are sometimes referred to as Baby Busters because our birth years follow the baby boom that began after World War II. That boom began to decline in 1957 and was further hastened by FDA approval of oral contraceptives in 1960.
Gen X are those born between the early 1960s and the early 1980s.
