  • Many folks get wrapped up in meaningless markers of “success”
  • More friends, more followers, more money, more more more
  • The United States Census aggregates a lot of statistical and demographic data including estimations of average net worth
  • Below is the average net worth by age of all Americans
  • The oldest Americans are worth nearly 30 times the youngest Americans
  • Net worth more than doubles after the 35-44 age range
  • Americans 75 years old and over actually see their net worth go down
  • Also there is a chart for each year of the millennial age bracket – which is really dependent on income, savings and debt.
