And my point is that there should be no expectation for young people to have savings. If that’s included in the total %, it’s blowing the number up unrealistically.




If anything, olds with pensions are the ones skewing the data

There’s no way to know that without seeing the percentage of the whole each age range represents. If 18-24 is 20% of the sampled population, then I know the numbers are skewed by about 20% because I don’t expect savings in that range. If old pensioners represent 2% of the whole, they aren’t skewing much.
