Feeling Left Behind? Here’s How Millennials Are Secretly Thriving Financially.
Manage episode 435239052 series 1090713
n this episode, Steve Rhode and Damon Day discuss the surprising financial progress of millennials, a generation once mocked for living with their parents and struggling with basic expenses. They highlight that many millennials have outpaced Gen Xers and boomers in wealth accumulation, largely due to strategic decisions like buying homes before 2019 and contributing early to retirement plans. Despite this progress, they acknowledge that not all millennials have benefited equally, with some still struggling financially. The hosts emphasize that it’s never too late to start making smart financial moves, whether that means saving, investing, or getting out of debt.
The conversation also delves into the importance of having a financial plan, especially for those feeling left behind. Damon stresses that without a plan, people tend to react rather than act strategically, which can lead to financial stagnation. They discuss the benefits of buying homes further from city centers as a way to enter the real estate market and build equity. The episode wraps up with the hosts inviting listeners to suggest topics for future discussions, underlining that while financial advice may seem repetitive, its consistent application is key to long-term success.
