Millennials and Gen Zers are pulling in bigger paychecks, but much of their spending power is fueling short-term purchases like groceries and vacations, not savings.
Besides super low budget weekends away within 4 hours of home, I haven’t had a vacation since 2010. If not for a friend with a way to do that cheaply, I’ve never had a proper vacation in my entire adult life.
I’m still alive.
I feel like I couldn’t say the same if I went that long without food, water, or shelter.
Not saying I like the state of affairs, but clearly it’s not the same category of “basic need”.
