To date, I think non-minority American boomers have had it the best. The past sucks pretty fast if you go back further than that, and we're in interesting times now. I could be born a straight cis white man in New York state, 1940 and die in 2019.

This is assuming history is unchangeable. If not, maybe it's better to arrive after the Cuban missile crisis, which I'm guessing ended badly in most parallel universes.
