Life Milestones & Future Plans Report

Gen Z and Millennials are doing milestones their own way, reflecting the changes in their gen’s priorities, and also lots of financial pressures. They’re rethinking success timelines—whether it’s for school, homeownership, starting a business, travelling, or focusing on mental health. While the “American Dream” has always been to achieve more than their parents’ generation, young people are more concerned with simply feeling fulfilled and secure before they think about things like marriage, kids, or “adult” milestones.

YPulse’s 2025 Life Milestones and Future Plans report dives into how young people view their lives, goals, and how their future might stack up to their parents’ lives.
