Wake Up with Wealthtender: You Might be a Millennial if…

😃

Good morning.

If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’re either a Millennial or responsible for bringing one or more into the world. 

We’re not here to stereotype Millennials. The internet does plenty of that for us. So we won’t assume you spent the ’90s watching Full House or The Fresh Prince of Bellaire. Or that you’re reading this newsletter over a breakfast that includes avocado toast. 🥑

But we are here to offer useful resources for Millennials in today’s newsletter to help you enjoy life more with less money stress.

And if you’re looking for a financial advisor for millennials, you’ll find them on Wealthtender quicker than you can snap a selfie. 😎

Millennials were born between 1980 and 1996, meaning in 2021 millennials are 25 to 41 years old. If we imagine retiring at age 65, that gives us 20 to 40 years to save for retirement.

Making the day-to-day expenses can be tough. On top of that, now you have to try to save for your future? It can seem impossible. But, it really isn’t.
