Pictures: 10 personality traits of the Millennial Generation

Call us what you want -- Millennials, Generation Y, Generation We -- it doesn't change the reality that most of us grew up just as one era ended and another began.

In the meantime, we're dealing with our shortened attention spans, student debt and smartphone obsession.
