最新报道:Americans now believe they need an average net worth of $2.2 million to feel financially comfortable, according to a new CNBC survey. The figure has risen sharply from $1.9 million in 2023, reflecting growing economic concerns amid inflation and market volatility. Younger generations report even higher targets, with millennials aiming for $2.5 million and Gen Z targeting $3.1 million. Financial advisors caution that these numbers may reflect unrealistic expectations, noting that true financial security depends more on spending habits and emergency savings than arbitrary wealth milestones. The survey also found regional differences, with coastal residents typically citing higher targets than midwestern respondents.
