Episode Was It Easier For Previous Generations To Build Wealth?
TikTok says it's impossible for Gen Z to get ahead, but what does the data actually show? In this episode, we analyze income levels, inflation rates, housing prices, spending patterns, and more across two generations to answer the question: Was it easier to build wealth then or now?
From median household income that's actually higher today (inflation-adjusted) to housing prices that have skyrocketed 50% post-pandemic and college costs that have increased exponentially, we break down the math to show you what's changed, what's stayed the same, and what it means for your financial future.
