(BPT) - While the definition of the 'American Dream' is subjective, a new Chase survey of more than 2,500 Millennial and Gen Z adults shows that they believe freedom and homeownership are its most important pillars. The vast majority of respondents (78%) say that their goals are within reach, even as they recognize several factors making it more difficult today, such as housing affordability, inflation and the rising cost of living. The study's findings also underscore the need for accessible financial education, particularly as young adults prepare for major life purchases.
