K&H: more than a fifth of young people are unable to put it aside

Many young people try to prepare for the future, i.e. a significant part of them tries to save. According to the K&H youth index, in the first quarter of this year, only 22 percent of young people consciously set aside regularly at the beginning of the month – this is the lowest ratio of the last 2 years’ measurements so far – while 16 percent put away the remaining amount at the end of the month. 17 percent, 23 percent of them save regularly, but not on a monthly basis, which is the highest rate measured since the beginning of 2022, even though they can only save if they receive a larger amount. In total, the vast majority of those surveyed, 78 percent, save at some level. At the same time, this also means that at least a fifth of them, 22 percent, are not used to it at all or for some reason have not been able to put it aside recently.
