Year over year, the influence of women investing early and often has increased. This year, Gen Z is set to outpace the savings rates of all generations at this point in their lives. Additionally, they are more bullish about the market and believe their financial situation warrants a conversation with a financial advisor. What is fueling this change from other generations? Social media.
“Finfluencers” like Vivian Tu @YourRichBFF engage their audience with the allure of financial vitality through various social platforms and podcasts. Unlike traditional lectures on compounding interest and buy-and-hold strategies, this approach allows new audiences to be engaged through infotainment scrolling. Unknowingly, like-minded information is populating your feed, passively educating the masses. Women are drawn to Finfluencers because they are not tied to a pedigree; it's about the content provided. Candid conversations about money and the impact on personal stories carry weight to ignite change. Women don’t want to be the cautionary tale. Furthermore, women who are actively involved in their finances lead to an improved overall quality of life. It goes without saying that you should save early and often. But if you are at a place in your life where you think your financial situation warrants a discussion, set up an appointment with me. If you are interested in some great infotainment, check out my YouTube channel and get to know how I approach finance. Reference 1. 2023 401(k) Participant Study Gen Z Focus
