The Great Depression led to some of the banking laws that we have now, including the FDIC. Other laws regarding the stock market were enacted then, and became part of the deregulation of the last few years, leading to some of the current problems. Another feature is that the people who are now in retirement were young during the depression. They learned to reuse items and to save and have become probably the most affluent elders in history.
