À propos de cet audio

 This source examines the multifaceted challenges contributing to Generation Z's lower credit scores compared to previous generations. It highlights significant economic headwinds, such as rising living costs, stagnant wages, substantial student loan debt, and the instability of the gig economy, all of which force Gen Z to rely heavily on credit. The text also explores behavioral factors like limited financial literacy, the pervasive use of "Buy Now, Pay Later" schemes, and social media's influence on lifestyle inflation, leading to poor financial habits. Furthermore, systemic barriers including restricted access to traditional credit, an unaffordable housing market, and medical debt exacerbate their financial difficulties, ultimately impacting their credit health.
