Why People Under 35 Are Stressed

This is a great list from what Beth Braverman calls “The Beaten Generation” looking at what’s happened since 2005:

• Their home equity has dropped 51%
• Their net worth is down 55%.
• Their student debt is up 19%.
• Unemployment for college grads is up 64%.
• Their income is down 4.5%
• 31% more are living with their parents.
• The birth rate is down 7.1%.
• 22% less think they’ll be able to retire by age 65.

And, we wonder why they’re pessimistic…
