Millennials are in their peak years for financial uncertainty, and some are so intensely worried about their money it’s making them depressed and keeping them up at night.
That’s according to Northwestern Mutual’s 2023 Planning & Progress Study, which finds that financial uncertainty is “elevated for Gen Z, peaks for millennials, begins to recede for Gen X, and sits at its lowest levels for boomers.” While 36% of Americans say their anxiety keeps them up at night at least once a month, the share reaches 44% for Gen Z and 53% for millennials.
