Survey says...

According to a survey by fintech company Greenlight Financial Technology, Gen Z teens, like Millennials and Gen X parents, experience daily financial stress. The top three financial stressors for all generations include inflation, lack of savings, and gas prices. Moreover, many young people seek financial education on platforms like TikTok and YouTube.

Help your young people worry less -- through conversations

  • Discuss your own financial concerns and plans
  • Offer better sources of information
  • Talk about inflation
  • Explain how gas prices can be dealt with
  • Explain how college can be affordable
  • Explain how they may be able to buy a home
  • Explain that many good jobs are out there
  • Explain how they can grow rich, via investing

The more teenagers and young people know about money matters, the less they may worry about it.
