no way that is true for Gen x. I can almost put that much in savings a month if I wanted to. most people my age group can. I live well below my means though.

Honestly I'm surprised the average amount saved is a positive number.

What was the median amount saved?

yep, which is why shit like this typically always uses the median as it is a more true value and stops trust fund babies with 500 million in savings blowing the entire fucking thing out

I don’t get it. What do they mean by “savings”

Like if part of your paycheck goes to a 401k does that count as savings? Do they mean “money that was put in either a savings account or some financial asset” or do they mean “balance added to a savings account” or what
