Americans think they need a whole lot more money than they're making to feel comfortable, according to a new survey. The latest survey from Bankrate, which polled 2,407 US adults from May 16 to 20, looks at how much Americans think they need to make to feel financially secure. According to the survey, Gen Z respondents said a $200,000 annual salary would ensure their financial security. Millennials said they'd need $199,000, and for Gen Xers and baby boomers, their financial security targets were at $183,000 and $171,000, respectively. To be sure, it's not all bad for Gen Z. TransUnion's latest Consumer Pulse Study found that Gen Z is "the most stable of any generation" in this year's second quarter, with 45% of them reporting wage increases over the past three months.

The cutbacks were especially stark in tech, where promotion rates plunged by 25%. Yes, high interest rates and slower economic growth means that companies are being forced to tighten their belts. Related storiesEven when the job market begins to heat up again, we may not see promotion rates recover to 2022 levels for some time — or ever.

A Forbes Advisor survey of 1,000 Americans who plan to travel in 2024 showed the post-pandemic "revenge travel" boom is in full force, despite rising inflation. The stats weren't surprising to Thomas, who told BI that this new trend could be partly attributed to the rise of remote work. Revenge travel and other loansIt's not just remote and hybrid working that may have contributed to a rise in travel spending.

Thomas and financial expert Julie Beckham told BI that young people are likely to be influenced by peers who are showcasing their travel experiences online.

Despite a few jabs at Trump, Biden spent much of the debate slurring through sentences and, at times, sounding incoherent.

'It wasn't the president's finest hour'When it was Trump's turn to speak, Biden sometimes looked toward the ground as though drifting from the conversation.

☆ Why Americans Hate Their Jobs; Fake Email Jobs, Meaningless Work
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-26 | by ( Molly Lipson | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +11 min

The American Psychological Association highlights findings that people who find their jobs meaningful are more engaged, show up to work more, and are healthier. Many in those industries have begun to refer to their work as "fake email jobs" — office jobs that largely involve sending emails without producing anything. Other people have managed to juggle multiple full-time remote jobs thanks to the limited amount of work each job actually required. Working a useless job is a "profound psychological violence," Graeber wrote, one that removes any sense of dignity and fosters "deep rage and resentment." Short of everyone quitting to become their own CEO, employers will need to figure out how to make work feel meaningful for their staff.

Gen Zers, it turns out, are "not on a linear journey to evaluate the veracity of anything." In other words, Gen Zers know the difference between rock-solid news and AI-generated memes. For Gen Z, checking what other people are saying in the comments isn't shallow. The aim is to reach Gen Z readers where they live — scrolling through the comments — and turn them into subscribers. But I'll confess that I worried about the idea that Gen Z checks the comments to decide what to believe.

Gen Z is struggling to find love amid various dating challenges, and it's largely because dating apps have made them too picky, according to one relationship therapist. Gen Z generally refers to the generation born between 1997 and 2012. "When we're on dating apps, the way that we can filter people is not conducive to actually finding someone who's a really good match." "Dating apps have forced us to prioritize things that don't actually matter in relationships," Guenther explained.
