😬 Financial anxieties and the "live for today" attitude - The latest Ipsos Global Trends report reveals some interesting insights into how financial anxieties are shaping consumer behavior, particularly among younger generations. 🎯 Financial realities impacting life milestones: The report indicates a generational disconnect when it comes to achieving milestones like buying homes, getting married, and starting families. This disconnect is attributed to financial realities that put these dreams out of reach for many, especially younger generations. ✅ "Live for today" attitude: The report associates this financial pressure with a widespread sentiment of living for today, as the future feels uncertain. It links this attitude to the rise of financial products like "buy now, pay later" and personal debt, suggesting a potential connection between financial anxieties and financial behaviors. 🏦 Economic inequality: The report highlights economic inequality as a major cause of societal division. It notes that many people feel the economy is rigged and that the wealthy should pay more taxes. This suggests a potential connection between financial inequality and social unrest. 👮♀️ Regulation of financial services: The report mentions that trust in institutions is low and that there is a desire for more regulation. This could imply a need for greater regulation and oversight in the financial services sector. 🔗 Learn about the full scope of global trends from the report here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gjj58uij
