how much money does the average 20-21 year old have?

This is bank accounts, assets all added up, anything you own. What's the average amount of money a 20-21 yr old have these days ? I feel like I am broke.

I'm guessing my 20 yr old friends have about 3-5k on average saved up. Some have alot more, some alot less

[dynacraze]

Lot of friends probably have around that much saved up too. So is that average?

[MEbenhoe]

Are you talking how much actual cash they have or what their net worth is? Most 20-21 year olds will be negative if it is the latter.

In college; in debt.

Not in college; $500-$5k

[dynacraze]

I am referring to actual cash.

I'm 21 and I made $7.3k this week.

I would guess the median would be lower than this. Then again, I go to a state school, so my view might be skewed.

I would be broke if it wasnt for poker

[johnnyrocket]

i would say most of my friends are around $1k in net worth maybe, college student friends much lower due to loans

some friends just work back home and are worth $20K+ but have no future.

i say hey just play poker a few days a week and make much more
