Listens for Millennials on a Budget
January 1, 2020
millennialis tossed around in a negative, derogatory way. Millennials are routinely called self-centered and impulsive, and they’ve been blamed for everything from the death of dining out and brick-and-mortar stores to the advent of the avocado economy. But
millennialis just a term for the group of people reaching adulthood in the early 21st century, having been born between 1981 and 1996. Like any other generation, they’re just trying to survive amidst the messes that decades prior left them. It has never been harder to afford rent or car payments or health insurance than it is now. And that’s certainly not the fault of millennials. If you’re a young adult trying to save money for your future, but don’t know how or if it’s even possible for you, here’s a selection of audiobooks featuring budgeting tips geared toward millennials to help you get started.
