Finance affects life decisions of young Poles
A report by UCE Research and Risify highlights that financial concerns dominate the fears of Poles aged 18-35. About 47.4% worry about lack of money. Among top fears are rising living costs (27%), job loss (24%), increasing prices (23.9%), and high taxes (23.6%). Lesser concerns include debt (20.9%), immigration (19.6%), death of a loved one (16.7%), fraud (14.7%), and high inflation (14.4%).
The report indicates that only 1.5% of this age group reports no fears. Women and those from rural areas or small towns are more likely to be concerned about financial issues. The report suggests that financial instability, low early career earnings, and high inflation contribute to these fears. It underscores the need for financial education and better income opportunities to reduce stress and improve future planning.
