Personal Finances: The Final Frontier for Social Media – Survey of Young Adults

Personal Finances: The Final Frontier for Social Media Results of a National Survey of Young Adults, conducted for AARP October 2009

  • “AARP conducted a study on young people, social media, and finances to support development of the LifeTuner website: a new expert-backed site sponsored by AARP that aims to provide a simple roadmap to help young Americans achieve financial security. For a generation so tech-savvy and clearly comfortable with the interconnectedness of social media, results indicate that financial issues are still a taboo subject for young people connecting online…The Number One thing young people worry about is money and finances (57 percent), along with jobs, unemployment, and career issues (18 percent). These concerns trump all other issues including health (10 percent), relationships (10 percent), and education (8 percent).”
