Serious Young Sinkies Feel Less Financially Secure Than Merdeka Old Farts!

[JohnTan]

SINGAPORE — Singaporeans born in the 1950s, dubbed the Merdeka Generation, as well as millennials agree that life is better for young people today than it was when the older group was in their youth, a new survey showed.

On the downside, young people today feel less financially secure and that they have less work-life balance than the Merdeka Generation did in their youth.

The findings of the inaugural survey, done by the Singapore National Co-operative Federation (SNCF), were released on Wednesday (Nov 20).

The survey looked at how millennials, aged 19 to 35, and those now aged 60 to 69 view various aspects of life as a young person — today versus the 1970s and 1980s when people of the Merdeka Generation were in that age bracket.

Besides financial worries, a majority of the millennials feel that they do not have enough time for family and friends compared with the older group.

sinkies are being exploited, health in exchange for better wages. my friend who is a sales vp in the IT industry spent 12 to 14 hours in front of a computer screen until his eye got double vision.
