[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it weird that the OP says all of their friends have at least 400k in savings by age 30.  Do your friends tell you their net worth?  I find it bizarre that anyone would talk about this.  I went to one of the the fanciest and wealthiest colleges and I have never, ever heard anyone talk about how much money they have.  It's extremely rare for anyone to even talk about their salary.  Are my friends and I the exception?  It's kind of obvious when people have a certain level of wealth (or at least spending), but no one ever talks about numbers.  [/quote]

Recent college grad Gen Z and young millennials seem to talk about money a lot IME. With a lot of details: retirement account balances, investments. financial plan etc.  I think all the personal finance tiktoks (and for the older folks, blogs) that have changed the culture around this for this age group.[/quote]

This. Gen Z is very very different. There are entire Facebook groups and blogs and online communities where people document getting to 100k in networth.

People are even sharing their journeys in entrepreneurships. Documenting their high and lows when it comes to making profit.
Baby boomers and Gen X are so out of touch.[/quote]
