As urban young professionals of the “Millennial” generation, we’re often labeled as materialistic, spoiled and filled with a sense of entitlement… Ouch! Throw in social media, where financial milestones are routinely broadcast to our friends and peer networks, and you’ll find some unique (to say the least) spending habits. Well, regardless of what we’re spending our hard earned cash on, the truth is, “the 80 million members of the Millennial generation (born 1977 to 1995) represent 25% of the U.S. population and more than $200 billion in annual buying power” (https://www.barkleyus.com/millennials). So, it goes without saying that our dollars count. If you work hard and play harder, let’s hear it! What’s your guilty financial pleasure — that one thing that drains your wallet no matter how much you may try to fill your “rainy day” account? Whether you’re feeding an insatiable shoe fetish or lusting for travel, share your thoughts with us inside the work room!
