Millennial women are more likely to be financially supporting their households compared to older generations. According to the Wells Fargo Affluent Women’s Study, among those making $100K-$250K, 32% of married or partnered Millennial and Gen X women report being the primary income earner or contributing the largest share of the household finances, compared to the 20% in older generations who carried their families financially. They’re also more likely to “take care of the family finances” than older females, but feel less confident, with over a third saying “I did not learn much about finances growing up.” (CNBC)
