Gen X is going deeper into credit card debt despite rising incomes
Original: Gen X is going deeper into credit card debt — even as they make more money than ever
Generation X, those born roughly between 1965 and 1980, is accumulating more credit card debt even though their earnings are at record highs, according to Yahoo Finance. The report highlights a growing gap between income and financial security for middle-aged Americans, with high living costs and debt balances outpacing pay rises.
Why now: Rising credit card balances among an income-earning generation raise concerns about household finances and consumer spending.
