Survey: Half of millennials have saved less than $1,000

A new survey finds that millennials have had a slow start to building an emergency fund, or savings of any sort.

About 52 percent of millennials have less than $1,000 saved up, according to a survey commissioned by Howmuch.net, a “cost information website.”

Another 18 percent of millennials have between $1,000 and $5,000 saved, 7 percent have $5,000 to $10,000, 6 percent have $10,000 to $20,000, and 17 percent have more than $20,000 saved.

Unsurprisingly, savings increase with income. Age correlates as well; younger millennials have less in savings than older millennials.
