Millennials Are Buying Homes amp; Cars, Getting Better Jobs

Millennials Are Buying Homes amp; Cars, Getting Better Jobs “Kids today!” Every generation rolls their eyes at the one that comes after it, painting the youngsters with an extremely broad brush as lazy, irresponsible, and (yep) entitled. Still, the millennial generationâ€"born between 1982 and 2002, easily the most studied bunch in historyâ€"catches more flak than any group that has come before it. The theory holds that millennials were babied so much that they never quite turned into full-fledged grownups. Hence the explanation for why so many of them live with their parents into adulthood, and why they supposedly need lots of hand-holding and pats on the back in the workplace. It doesn’t help the reputation of millennials when surveys show that, for instance, the majority prioritize things like concerts, travel, and takeout food over paying off student loan debt. Yet it’s clear that so many of the truisms of this highly examined generation turn out to be myths, and that the reasons for their apparent failure to grow up go far beyond their control. A multitude of interconnected forces have been at play, including the financial collapse and its destructive fallout, soaring student loan debt, and various trends steering millennials to marry, have kids, and get their careers off the ground later in life. They’ve all conspired to give the impression of a generation that doesn’t want to or simply cannot take on adult responsibilities. As millennials have gotten older and the economy has recovered, however, many of the forces holding them back and delaying their entry into “adulthood” have faded. Here are a handful of signs showing that millennials are growing up, and that they are not, in fact, all that different from previous generations. Buying Cars For a long time, the perception was that millennials thought that car ownership was “not cool,” or at least not nearly as necessary as having the latest smartphone. The theory held that young people preferred urban living and a mix of public transportation and Uber and didn’t want to be trapped with car payments. Some observers even dubbed Gen Y as Gen “N,” as in neutralâ€"which supposedly summed up this group’s feelings about automobiles. Read next: 10 Things Millennnials Buy More Often Than Everyone Else Yet millennials surpassed Gen X in terms of overall car sales in the U.S. in 2014, and the under-35 set accounted for 27% of auto sales that year, up from just 18% in 2010. By 2020, the millennial generation is forecast to represent 40% of American car sales. The top reason given in 2014 by millennials for why they don’t own automobiles is that car ownership costs too much, but as young people advance in their careers and earn more money, the expense becomes much easier to handle. Buying Homes Home ownership by Americans ages 35 and younger dropped 12% between 2006 and 2011, a period when the percentage of young adults living with their parents increased significantly. The Great Recession surely played a big role in the reluctance of millennials to move out on their own and buy a first home, as has the fact that young people today are getting married at slower ratesâ€"and at older agesâ€"compared with previous generations. A study from the National Association of Realtors reveals, however, that the demographic accounting for the largest portion of home purchases over the last three years is Gen Y. More than one-third (35%) of all home buyers were millennials in 2015, up from 32% in 2014, constituting a higher percentage than Gen X (26%) and Baby Boomers (31%). Moving to the Suburbs The populations in many American cities rose after the Great Recession, thanks to relatively cheap rent and lower cost of living because it’s not necessary to own a car. Surveys also showed that many millennials preferred living in urban, walkable areas rather than out in the ‘burbs. Read next: 12 Things Americans Are Suddenly Buying More Than Ever And yet in surveys the majority of millennials say they aspire to live in the suburbs. A FiveThirtyEight study pointed out that the number of people in their 20s moving out of the cities to the suburbs far outnumbers those going in the reverse direction. According to the NAR study cited above, only 17% of millennial home buyers purchased in urban areas in 2015, compared with 21% the year before. Getting Real Jobs It wasn’t the choice of most millennials to be underemployedâ€"or totally unemployedâ€"in the years during and after the Great Recession. While underemployment (i.e., working a job for which you’re overqualified, like a college grad employed as a barista) has been a huge problem in recent years, the tide is slowly turning. According to a Georgetown University study, underemployment declined to 10% in 2015, down from 17% during the recession’s darkest days. The rate of underemployment among college graduates was recently measured at just 6.2%, down from 10.2% during the recession. The economic recovery, combined with a broad swath of retirements by baby boomers, has opened up opportunities for millennial workersâ€"college grads especially. “While full recovery, in my mind, is somewhat down the road, the recovery is taking people with college degrees first,” Georgetown’s Anthony Carnevale, a co-author of the study, told MarketWatch. Read next: 10 Things Millennials Won’t Spend Money On Saving Money This is pretty amazing for a group that’s stereotyped as being wasteful with money, and for being overburdened with student loan debt. Studies show that millennials start saving and investing at the age of 23, on average, compared with 26 for Gen X and 32 for younger baby boomers. The typical 20-something American is saving 7.5% of income for retirement nowadays, compared with just 5.8% in 2013. Stashing away cash is the ultimate prudent, boring money move. So before declaring millennials as irresponsible and immature, take a look in the mirror and try hard to recall what you were doing with your money when you were 23.

Dont Want Managements Job Thats Okay, They Dont Think Youre Right for It - Work It Daily

Dont Want Managements Job Thats Okay, They Dont Think Youre Right for It - Work It Daily Two weeks ago, BusinessWeek, offered some interesting survey results in reference to Bosses Day which was celebrated nationwide on October 16th. (What, you didn’t get the memo?) One was from national staffing firm, Adecco, which says 69% of 1500 employees surveyed said they wouldn’t want their boss’ job if offered to them. The reason why? The 'pressure to have all the answers' was listed as a main concern, but I’m here to tell you the real reason â€" and more importantly, why your boss might not want to offer you a management position anyways. One of the most valuable aspects of my job is the work I do as an executive coach. As you can imagine, I get to hear what your bosses are REALLY thinking. One of the most common themes we discuss, even in bad economic times, is ‘attitude.’ These days, managers are feeling the impact of what I call, “The Office Effect.” I’m referring to the show on TV whose main source of comedy is a manager that is viewed as completely ill-equipped and unworthy of his position. Now, don’t get me wrong, I think the show is hilarious (the original series from England is just as funny too). But, the show also implies that any employee who’s really cool must also be ‘anti-manager’ and not aspire to the position. Only brown-nosing losers would actually want to be a manager, right? Well, guess what, the show’s theme does represent the opinions of more than a few employees in corporate America. Trust me folks - I’m not making this up. In fact, a survey commissioned by the staffing firm, Randstad NA, this past year indicates that more than 1/4 of American workers (27%), think their management team is down-right incompetent. (read more below...) It’s true. These days, many people think being a manager ranks up there with being a used car salesmen (no offense to those that do this as a profession, but I’m sure you know the job gets a really bad rap). Yes, managing people is viewed by most as a complete headache and not worth the emotional and physical toll it takes to do the job. Being able to motivate people and help employees reach their goals, while simultaneously driving the goals of the company, is no easy task. But my question is this: If you don’t want to do the job, is it really fair to be so critical of those that are willing to try? According to managers I speak with, “The Office Effect” is being seen wide-spread, but what employees don’t realize is that it’s hurting their professional futures. Employees seem to think that their eye-rolling, mutual glances, syrupy responses, challenges in the form of questions, and even their quiet, passive-aggressive behavior, as displayed on the show, is going unnoticed. News alert: 93% of communication is non-verbal. Translation: your attitude is not as concealed as you may think. Managers see and hear you, even if you don’t say a word, and they’re getting tired of it. Now, before you get defensive and say, “but they deserve it,” let’s talk about how your attitude may be a bit misguided. As an employee in America, we’ve come to believe it is our right to work in a place where we are consistently valued and respected. Unfortunately, we’ve lost sight of the fact that all we are truly entitled to is: ”Life, liberty, and the PURSUIT of happiness.” If you aren’t feeling valued or respected at work, believe it or not, that’s your problem. As harsh as that sounds, it is the truth. I work with people all the time who are frustrated and angry with management. As a career coach, I tell my clients they’ve got two options: Either strategize on a way for you to move past your anger and be happy on-the-job again (ie. find ways to get the promotion and recognition you want or at least a way to deal with your frustrations so you can come to appreciate your job again), or leave. Even if you are convinced your boss is downright rude or crazy, it’s still your choice to work there. However, let me caution you against opting to leave too quickly. Often times, the problem isn’t the manager, it’s the employee’s perception of the problem. I’ve worked with more than a few people who have quit or taken new jobs in haste, only to regret the decision and wish they had stayed put. The grass isn’t always greener someplace else. Now, all this being said, here’s the point I must convey: If you are an unhappy employee, I can pretty much guarantee your boss knows it. And, if you aren’t seeing any effort on his/her part to help you overcome your dissatisfaction, it could just be because your attitude has given your boss the impression you are beyond saving. Managers want to help people who are pleasant to be around. Managers want to help people who they believe want to stick around. It’s that simple. So, instead of remaining frustrated and resorting to long, unproductive grievance sessions with co-workers, try working with an objective person (ie. mentor or career strategist) on how you can work towards an amicable and effective partnership with your boss. If that’s not an option, there are plenty of online resources (if you haven't taken the free ISAT test on the 'Career Tools' page to learn how you are being perceived at work - start there!) and informative books that can help you learn techniques for taking control of your career and improving your relationship with management. I guarantee your attitude will improve and your boss will take note. Have you joined our career growth club?Join Us Today!
