What constitutes a good life? For some, it’s having ample time with loved ones. For others, it’s buying a second home or taking lavish vacations. For others still, it’s just being able to pay your own bills instead of relying on your parents.
But different generations have vastly different ideas of what wealth really means, per a survey of 3,000 active investors (and 1,000 aspiring ones) by U.S. Bank that zeroed in on the oldest and youngest adult age groups to compare their wealth-building priorities and attitudes. It found that boomers largely have a singular definition of wealth, but that’s not quite the case for Gen Z.
