Gen Z & the Debt Trap, Part 1: A Wounded Wallet
Manage episode 434839854 series 2428757
In the first episode of our three part-series “Gen Z & the Debt Trap,” we explore a Credit Karma report that found Gen Z is accumulating debt faster than any other generation. To learn more, we’ll meet Kyle Dillon, a 22-year-old Gen Zer who after leaving home to pursue higher education, accumulated tens of thousands of dollars in debt. We also look at a TransUnion study to see how Gen Zers’ paychecks can’t keep up with inflation, creating dependency on using credit cards. Plus, the St. Louis Federal Reserve shares a surprising advantage Gen Z has over other generations. Tadeo Ruiz Sandoval hosts.
