Young Americans' Wealth Has Soared Since The Pandemic

Turns out when the economy collapses and millions of disproportionately lower wage workers are laid off, the average wage of those fortunate enough to still have a job is higher than the average when there wasn't mass unemployment. Sort of like when Trump tried to deregulate infection controls in nursing homes shortly before the pandemic hit--smart strategy to keep Medicare spending down since no old people, no problem. Great economic leadership!
You have absolutely no fucking clue, you low IQ TDS afflicted moron.

How does a president regulate infections???
 
Due to a historic economic recovery, inflation-adjusted wealth for younger Americans has grown 49 percent since right before the pandemic—a positive trend following decades of stagnation.

Recent Federal Reserve data show that the average wealth of households under 40 was $259,000 in the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2023, marking a 49 percent increase since the fourth quarter of 2019, even after adjusting for inflation. Importantly, these data likely reflect broad-based wealth growth among young people, as opposed to a small group of wealthy young people driving these gains.

Household wealth for those under 40 in the U.S. is up 49% from its pre-pandemic level, according to a new analysis from the left-leaning Center for American Progress.

Why it matters: Young households haven't seen wealth growth like this since the Federal Reserve first started tracking this data in 1989.

Stunning stat: Millennials — born between 1981 and 1996 — saw their wealth double over this period, per CAP.

Zoom in: Wealth includes the value of a household's assets, including stocks, bank accounts, and real estate, minus its liabilities, such as mortgages and student loan debt.

:woohoo:

The wealth includes real estate which has gone out of control.

You take that out of the picture and this means very very little.

So, do not pass go, do not collect anything but your stupid pills.

Since when did real estate not count as wealth?

I hope that's true. Some young Americans got hammered by the Bush recession and Covid pandemic at the start of their earnings years.
