Episode description

Members of Generation Y -- a group of approximately 70 million young people between the ages of 15 and 30 -- are starting their careers in perhaps the worst job market since the Great Depression. Experts say the experience creates both immediate and long-term negative impacts including lower salaries now and in the future. And while their reduced spending power is not expected to have a lasting drag on the U.S. economy it does have significant repercussions for how these young people conduct their adult lives and careers.
