Maybe that avocado toast isn’t so bad, after all.
Millennials are way ahead of Baby Boomers when it comes to saving for retirement, according to a new study by investment firm Charles Schwab. That younger generation is already stashing away funds in their mid-20s, beating their parents by about a decade.
They also have higher balances in their 401(k)s than Gen Xers did at the same age, according to a report released by Pew last year.
But it’s not all good news. The increased saving could be because Millennials have no expectations of receiving employer-sponsored pension plans when they retire. In 1981, 84% of full-time workers at large companies participated in a pension plan; by 2020 that percentage plummeted to only 28%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
“A lot of Baby Boomers felt like their retirement was taken care of for them,” said Angela Montez, special counsel at the law firm Eversheds Sutherland, where she focuses on retirement and investment policy.

Millennials don’t have that luxury. About 72% of Millennials are significantly pessimistic about achieving financial security in retirement, compared with 43% of Boomers, according to the National Institute on Retirement Security. Saving at an earlier age hasn’t done much to ease retirement anxiety.
That’s likely because Millennials are worse off in nearly all aspects of their financial well-being. They graduated into the Great Recession, dealt with the Covid and their second recession just as they reached their peak earning potential. Now they’re gearing up for what financial analysts predict will be yet another recession, this time paired with inflation levels not seen for 40 years.
Millennials today make up the majority of the US workforce but represent just 6% of all household wealth. (Baby Boomers hold 50% of wealth and Gen Xers hold 30%.) It’s not unusual for wealth to accumulate in older generations, but in 1989, when Boomers were about the same age as Millennials are now, they represented more than 20% of all household wealth.
Student debt also has also exploded. A Millennial who started college in 2007 paid an average of $19,400 per year for tuition, room and board. A first-year-of-college Boomer in 1974 paid about $10,300, adjusted for inflation.

Lifestyle goals also play a factor in increased saving, said Montez. Millennials are more mobile than prior generations, so investing in a home isn’t necessarily a priority, and their money tends to be allocated into 401(k) plans.
About three-quarters of Boomers and Gen Xers expect to own a home in retirement, while fewer than half of Millennials do. More than 60% of Millennials will prioritize travel in retirement, the Schwab study found.
Millennials also said they will dedicate less time to managing their finances and investments once they retire, the study found, because they’re not as focused on continuing to accumulate wealth later in life as Gen Xers and Boomers are.
“Millennials think of retirement less as a target savings number and date and more like a state of mind or target lifestyle,” said Jonathan Craig, head of investor services and marketing at Charles Schwab.
There is one thing Millennials are focused on: cryptocurrency. Schwab found that about 25% of Millennials plan to invest in digital currencies, compared with about 5% of Boomers.
Asset managers are attempting to adjust to the change: Fidelity, the nation’s largest provider of 401(k) plans, announced Tuesday that it would allow its investors to put a portion of their savings in Bitcoin, so long as employers were on board.
Advisors remain skeptical of such changes.
“Retirement success comes from tried and true things like diversification, having ownership in the growth of the US and global economy through traditional stocks – things that have cash flows and generate growth,” said Rob Williams, managing director of financial planning, retirement income and wealth management at Schwab. “Right now crypto doesn’t qualify as having that.”
Best small towns for retirees in America
Best small towns for retirees in America
Many American retirees are looking to age in place, while others who have bid adieu to the workplace are seeking new locales. With no shortage of choices, how do they decide?
Some ways to narrow down the list include moving closer to grandkids or settling in a vacation spot that has generated family memories over the years. Folks who get the blues from high taxes and cold weather can find plenty of tax-friendly, warmer settings to establish new roots. Those who want to stay active with outdoor recreation or by playing golf have their pick of communities near manicured club courses and the great outdoors.
Big cities have advantages, as do small towns with safe streets and quiet neighborhoods. Some of the best choices are idyllic suburbs like Piermont, New York and Shenandoah, Texas, that are just minutes away from the business bustle and cultural attractions of big cities.
To help retirees thinking about a move, Stacker referenced Niche’s 2020 Best Places to Retire study, which lists 50 American small towns that offer the best retirement options. A maximum of 10 towns from each state and towns with a population of fewer than 40,000 were considered for the rankings, which Niche calculated according to retiree representation, weather quality, cost and safety, access to healthy living, and a handful of other factors. For each town, Stacker has included the town’s resident population along with figures for median home value, median rent, and median household income.
