People in their 20s and 30s are facing stagnating incomes, mounting credit-card debt, never-ending student loan payments and seemingly skyrocketing housing costs. They could be the first generation in almost a century that will not surpass or even equal their parents' standard of living. What should they be doing differently? What role if any should the public and private sectors play in helping these young adults with their financial woes?
