Money not top priority for youth
They may not be able to afford to buy their own home, but a survey suggests only 6% of “generation Y” employees (aged between 17 and 25) think money is the most important part of their job.
By contrast, 58% just want to be happy in their job — in common with their “generation X” elders, their older colleagues who were born between 1965 and 1982. A mere 3% of the X crowd felt that money was the main priority of employment, with 60% putting job happiness at the top of the list.
