Gen Z plans to retire in their early 50s—idealistically. 

Gen Z plans to retire in their early 50s—idealistically. YPulse has long told you Gen Z prioritizes a healthy work / life balance, but part of that may be finishing their office life as soon as possible. A study from Empower shows Gen Z 18+ plan on retiring at the age of 53, almost an entire 10 years earlier than the average retirement age throughout all generations. Many are just starting their careers and may struggle to save for retirement due to essential costs and debt repayment, though, so whether this will pan out is far from certain. YPulse data shows retirement benefits are a top priority for young consumers.
